	Sunday Service Schedule
9:00 am	Sundays this summer there will be one service at 9 a.m. Holy Eucharist Rite II with child care and children's activities. We will return to our regular two-service schedule in the fall.
8:00 am	This is an intimate service where we sit together in a circle for The Service of the Word. Instead of a sermon, the Rector or Deacon talks about the lessons and opens it up to discussion. We then proceed to the altar for communion, usually, but not always, using the more traditional Rite I Holy Eucharist.
10:00 am	During this service we usually follow Rite II in the Book of Common Prayer or offer one of the more contemporary Episcopal liturgies. We have a full choir on the first two services of the month; on the third service we have our folk musicians and on the fourth Sunday we usually have a Family Service, with a homily fitting for all ages. Children are always welcome and we have Sunday School and Godly Play for children as well as child care available for the very little ones. Please join us for coffee hour in the Parish Hall immediately following the 10:00 am service. Nursery care is available from 10:00 am.
