Worship Services

Sunday Mornings

Rite I - 7:30am in the Chapel

7:30am is Rite I, which is "Episco-speak" for a celebration of the Holy Eucharist that uses language in older Prayer Books.  If you like worship that has thee/thou/hast, etc., then you might like Rite I.  Rite I is a smaller congregation (around 70 worshippers) and there is less music.  The sermon is the same.  This service lasts about 50 minutes.

Rite II - 9am in the Church

9am is Rite II.  As you might imagine, Rite II uses language that is common to everyday speech.  At Rite II, we have a choral support from a soloist or instrumentalist (which means more music) and a larger worshipping congregation (around 185).  This service lasts about an hour.  You may see a lot of children at 9am and you won't smell incense (unless it's lingering from last week at 11am!)

Rite I or II - Solemn High Mass | 11am in the Church

11 am is Rite I or II.  At this service, we have a full choir (which means more music), a larger worshipping congregation (around 185), and more ceremonial which will include incense (more smells and bells) and chanting.  A beautiful service that incorporates all the senses, this service lasts about an hour.
