Join us for our service of Holy Eucharist, Rite II, for the 7th Sunday after Pentecost, with the Rev. Martha Clark.
Our LIVE service begins at 11am. Thanks be to God for declining COVID-19 transmission rates in Clarke County, where hospitalizations and deaths continue to remain low. Because of this masks are now optional for in-person worship, but are still available in the Narthex, with hand sanitizer stationed 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:

The Collect of the Day: O God, the protector of all who trust in you, without whom nothing is strong, nothing is holy: Increase and multiply upon us your mercy; that, with you as our ruler and guide, we may so pass through things temporal, that we lose not the things eternal; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
The Revised Common Lectionary readings for this Sunday:
Hosea 1:2-10

For the Beauty of the Earth: We give you thanks, most gracious God, for the beauty of earth and sky and sea; for the richness of mountains, plains, and rivers; for the songs of birds and the loveliness of flowers. We praise you for these good gifts, and pray that we may safeguard them for our posterity. Grant that we may continue to grow in our grateful enjoyment of your abundant creation, to the honor and glory of your Name, now and for ever. Amen.
