Join us for our service of Holy Eucharist for the Last Sunday after Pentecost, "Christ the King" Sunday, with the Rev. Melanie Lewis.  

Our LIVE service begins at 11am.  Thanks be to God that COVID-19 hospitalizations and deaths in Clarke County continue to remain low.  However, transmission rates of the Delta variant are still "HIGH", so masks continue to be required for all in-person worshippers.  Masks are available in the Narthex and hand sanitizer throughout the church.


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

You can still join us for online worship, via Zoom, using the following link:

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.
