The Inquirer’s Class is offered periodically, and provides a wealth of information about the origins, history, and beliefs of the Episcopal Church, as well as information about our parish.  This class is for those who are new to the Episcopal Church, who are Episcopalian but would like to know more about what we do and why we do it, and for those who are considering Confirmation or Reception in the church.

The Tuesday Morning Brunch Bunch is a group of senior parishioners who gather weekly for fellowship, prayer, and the study of Scripture.

Quiet Days are held occasionally in the church, and are a time of silently communing with God in the presence of the church community.  Quiet Days may include prayer, a meal, music, or a service project, but are conducted in a spirit of thoughtful tranquility.

EFM Graduates are those who have completed the Education for Ministry program, a formal three-year study of the Bible and theology.  These graduates gather for fellowship and study.
