Welcome
The mission and vision of any church is simply this - to know Christ and to make Christ known. How we do this varies from church to church and is as diverse as the communities we love and serve.
Here you will find a little bit about what makes this community unique. Ultimately though our identity is shaped by each and every person who comes here to worship, pray, love, learn, seek, and serve.
If this becomes your church home then you will shape who we are in the years to come. Whatever we look like, and whoever we are, may we always seek first the Son of God and may that always be our hope and joy.
Fr Robert Hendrickson, Rector

Prayer of Saint Philip
“Saint Philip, at the Last Supper you said to Jesus, ‘Lord, show us the Father and it will be enough for us.’ Help us to make this our prayer also and to seek God in all things. Pray for us to know the Father and Jesus Christ whom he has sent - for in this does eternal life consist. Amen.”
