What to Expect

COOS Front Door.jpg

When you visit us on a Sunday morning, you will be greeted at our front door.  As you move into the sanctuary ushers will welcome you and provide you with a bulletin containing the order of the service and references to the prayer book and hymnal.  The bulletin also has the readings and psalms for the day. Ushers can help you find a seat if you would like.

Our service generally follows one of several liturgies in the Episcopal Book of Common Prayer.  We normally celebrate the Eucharist (Holy Communion) with occasional Morning Prayer. Please contact the church office to be added to our email list and get the Zoom link.

Worshipers are encouraged to stand, sit or kneel for prayer, so do what feels most comfortable.  We welcome everyone at the altar to receive Holy Communion or a blessing. Feel free to stand or kneel for Communion. We also bring the sacraments to those who cannot approach the front of the church easily.

Our tradition is to use wine and wafers for Communion. We provide non-alcoholic and gluten-free options.

One of our congregation's favorite times in the service is the Peace. This is a time to greet everyone and wish them "Peace be with you."
