Anglican Worship

Worship is the centre of parish life; a regular opportunity to be together in community before God.  The Eucharist, or Holy Communion, is the focus of worship, an opportunity for spiritual refreshment in a setting that recreates Christ’s last supper with his disciples.  As the writer Kathleen Norris suggested in her book, Amazing Grace, regular worship is like the chorus in a song or a hymn: a regular refrain that anchors the variety of verses in our weekly life.

Sunday Worship

Holy Communion

8:30 am and 7:00 pm
(6:00 pm in the park during the summer - until the end of August)


Our 8:30 am service of Holy Communion is a traditional Anglican Eucharist using the Book of Alternative Services form the 1980s. 


During the summer months, our evening worship consists of an informal service of Holy Communion in one of the local parks.


From autumn until late spring, the evening services present an opportunity to explore other types of worship: Choral Evensong with Eucharist on the first Sunday of most months; a spoken Eucharist on the second Sunday; a Eucharist with Taizé singing on the third Sunday; a Eucharist with Healing Prayer on the fourth Sunday; and Eucharist from the Book of Common Prayer on fifth Sundays.


Wednesday Worship

Holy Communion

10:00 am
