Our principal weekly worship service is the Holy Eucharist at 10:15 am each Sunday. The service usually concludes by 11:35 or so. The service is based on the Episcopal Book of Common Prayer, 1979 edition. Both Rite 1 and Rite 2 of the liturgy are used, during different seasonsRite 2 currently. Scripture readings are taken from the Revised Standard Version of the Holy Bible (including the Apocrypha). The mass is ordinarily sung. Congregational singing of the mass and hymns is led by a full choir with organ and/or piano accompaniment. (Click here for information on the choir.) Laying on of Hands and Anointing (Holy Unction) is ordinarily offered at this service for those who wish it. Coffee and pastries are served in the Parish Hall ("where the elite meet to eat") immediately after the service, where the congregation has the opportunity to critique the sermon, the choir's four-part harmony, and the performance of the local sports teams.
