St Paul's Episcopal Church



St. Paul’s offers two Eucharistic services every Sunday at 8 and 10 a.m. The said service at 8 a.m. is Rite I. The 10 a.m. service is a Rite II Family Eucharist, with an organist, choir(s), and congregational singing. In this service the children depart for Sunday School after the Communion, allowing time for an educational program that continues through coffee hour (see Church School below).

 

     There is regularly a children’s homily in the 10 a.m. liturgy, currently once per month. On these Sundays the children stay for the entire service and there is no Sunday School. Instructed Eucharists have been offered occasionally.
