Our worship services generally are about an hour. It includes hymns being sung, Bible scriptures being read, reading the Creeds from the Book of Common Prayer, and Communion. Certain holiday services are longer and include other elements like our Baptismal Covenant.

Some people wear business casual, some people wear jeans, occasionally you will see a suit. The leaders will be wearing vestments. Dress for the weather, come as you are! 

The traditional language rites are known as Rite 1, and the contemporary language rites are known as Rite 2. The Rite 2 liturgies reflect more fully the influence of the liturgical movement and contemporary theology. Rite 2 liturgies tend to reflect greater sensitivity for inclusive language issues.

We are a small congregation with members scattered throughout the small rows of pews. We have several children that giggle and play (we have some toys and colors in the back to use during the service). We are often pretty quiet during the service, but we move around and say "Peace be with you!" at one point in the service and we are likely to chime in with a warm welcome and introduce ourselves. The Episcopal service sometimes is a guessing game on when you sit, stand, or kneel, but the bulletin and Book of Common Prayer are a great guide. Our services change throughout the year to follow a Liturgical Calendar, but don't worry about that, we take it one week at a time together.
