Worship is at the heart of our life together.
Episcopal worship is rich in symbolism and tradition, and at the same time, is a contemporary expression of our belief and faith in a Living God who is present and accessible in material and ordinary things.

About Our Worship

The worship service is called the liturgy, which means the “work of the people.”  It is the shared activity of the entire congregation, and not just the ordained ministers.  Everyone present is an important participant.  The most common name for the liturgy is the Holy Eucharist, which means “thanksgiving.”  It may also be called “Holy Communion,” “The Lord’s Supper” or The Mass.”
    
​Episcopal worship has its roots in the ancient Church which, in turn, based its liturgy on ancient Jewish worship customs.  Following Jesus command to “do this in remembrance of me,” the first Christians gathered for prayer, Scripture study, offering and a shared meal.  These elements continue to form the foundation of our Sunday worship.

About the Book of Common Prayer

The Episcopal Church is distinctive from other Christian traditions in that it finds its identity in what its members do together (prayer and worship) rather than in its doctrine.  We are united with others throughout the country and the world through our common worship and liturgy.

Worship in the Episcopal Church is prescribed by the Book of Common Prayer.  Not only does the Book of Common Prayer determine our public worship, it is also the source and statement of much of our belief.  This is because the way we talk to God determines how we talk about God.  In other words, what we pray expresses what we believe.

​The Prayer Book provides structure and commonality of prayer while allowing flexibility for adaptation to customs, style, needs and expression of a particular community.
