Plan Your Visit
You are welcome here
We’re delighted to have guests join us for worship! Visiting a new church can be overwhelming, but knowing what to expect can make things easier. At St. Mary’s you are invited to come as you are. Searching or saved. Peace-filled or aching. Come and hear the truth of God’s love and let your soul be refreshed.
Join Us On Sunday!
-
Our early service on Sunday is a quiet, reverent time of worship filled with scripture and prayer. This service uses traditional language and does not have music.
-
Join us between services for a time of discipleship and fellowship. This class is held in a comfortable, approachable format led by our rector where we can ask questions and dig deeper into our faith, along with learning the practical applications to walk it out. All are welcome to participate.
-
Our 10:00AM service honors the traditions of the early church while making them applicable for the modern world. This service is filled with music, blended with time-tested hymns and praise. We value multi-generational worship and welcome children of all ages for the entire service. Children are also welcome to participate in Sunday School which is available during the service for grades PreK-2nd.
-
Our Sunday School classroom is an engaging environment of interactive lessons, activities, and crafts that help bring to life Bible stories from the Old and New Testament. Children spend the first portion of the service in their classroom, then return to join their families for Communion.
What to Expect
Our services are centered on rich tradition with practical application. The preaching is scripture-focused, Gospel-centered, and relational. Our worship includes songs, scripture readings, a sermon, prayers, and Communion.
We want you to feel at home. You may engage in the music and prayers at whatever level you feel comfortable. If you need help following along, just ask the person next to you in the pew. We're a friendly group and many of us were new once, too.
