Join us for this service of Morning Prayer for the 3rd Sunday of Easter.

This morning Peter addresses the Israelites concerning the risen Christ, we hear more from the apostle John in his first letter when he calls us "children of God", and Jesus appears one last time to his disciples, preparing them for the Great Commission.

Thanks be to God that the COVID numbers in Clarke County are continuing to remain low and we can worship again in person. 

Our LIVE service begins at 11am. Please come early for COVID check-in, wear your mask, and listen to some joyful prelude music before the service.


If you are more comfortable continuing to keep your distance, we understand.

We still gather together for live, interactive, online worship, via Zoom, using the following link:

 The Collect of the Day for this Sunday:

O God, whose blessed Son made himself known to his disciples in the breaking of bread: Open the eyes of our faith, that we may behold him in all his redeeming work; who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

 A Prayer for the Future of the Human Race: O God our heavenly Father, you have blessed us and given us dominion over all the earth: Increase our reverence before the mystery of life; and give us new insight into your purposes for the human race, and new wisdom and determination in making provision for its future in accordance with your will; through Jesus Christ our Lord.  Amen.
