Ministry of the Week
Youth MinistryYouth discipleship is a journey which starts at home and is supported by the work of the church. The desire of our Youth Ministry is to see the gospel of Jesus Christ shared with students in an age appropriate way that they can interact with. We want youth group to be relevant, fun, and Anglican in its expression. We do this through bible study, the liturgies found in the Book of Common Prayer, and plenty of games to keep us smiling. The youth group meets on Sunday afternoons and is currently followed by our confirmation classes. |

A Prayer for our Parish
Dear Heavenly Father, Together we are united with the saints of the household of God; built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Jesus Christ himself being the cornerstone. In Christ alone our church is being joined together, and is growing into a holy temple of the Lord by the Spirit. By Your wisdom may we discern what You want us to build; Through Jesus Christ our Lord and the power of the Holy Spirit, Amen. |
