Welcome!

Saint Philip’s in the Hills is a vibrant Christian community gathered in love, transformed by grace, and sent to serve. Since its foundation in 1936, Saint Philip’s has been worshipping the Lord in the beauty of holiness (Psalm 96:9), building up Christian disciples in their life of faith, and serving the most in need across the city of Tucson. Saint Philip’s is one of the largest Episcopal parishes in Arizona, with some 400 households, coming from many different walks of life and backgrounds.

Through worship, study, and service, we strive to follow Jesus’s command: “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself” (Matthew 22:37-40). Regardless of where you are in your journey of faith, Saint Philip’s warmly welcomes you.

Grant awarded

Saint Philip’s has received $150,000 from the National Fund for Sacred Places, a program of Partners for Sacred Places in collaboration with the National Trust for Historic Preservation.

This funding will support essential repairs to the sanctuary’s primary facade, which is arguably the most prominent example of work by the renowned Tucson architect, Josias Joesler. Saint Philip’s was originally constructed in 1936 and is on the National Register of Historic Places.
