Thanks to all the volunteers who cleared walkways for Sunday services. See more of the church during the latest winter storm in this short, QuickTime slideshow.
Giving ourselves to Christ
“To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good.”
The Anglican Communion covers the globe. There are Anglican and Episcopal Churches celebrating communion each Sunday in a great variety of tongues to a common liturgy. This is so because of the dedicated and heroic service of our missionaries. The vision of mission was so strong in the Episcopal Church in the United States during the early years of the new nation that the official name of the organization was “the domestic and foreign mission society of the Episcopal Church in the United States.” We continue to support missionaries overseas through the budget of the church we now simply call “The Episcopal Church.” <more>
A people born of longing
We are a people on the road, bound for a new home. Set free from nature’s instinctual constraints and experiencing the divisions wrought by our own destructive potential, we long to be healed and brought together into a new unity. Caught between earth and heaven, beast and angel, we struggle to give birth to a new humanity from the dust of old. We long for community.
Springing from the heart of God, born of Christ’s voluntary self-giving, that longed-for community grows. It includes ever-widening circles of diverse people. The church, empowered by the Holy Spirit, seeks to be loving community for the sake of the reunion of all people, the transformation of humanity and the healing of creation.
