Guided Liturgy for Families
Sundays, 8:45 am | Great Hall
Concurrent to the 8:45 am service in the Church, is the Guided Liturgy for Families in the Great Hall. The service is open to all ages but is specifically designed for families with children 10 and under to teach our liturgy and facilitate conversation within and between families. The service is led by the people there, taking on duties such as usher, reader, liturgical minister, or acolyte. There is singing, processions, prayers, and preaching just like any other Episcopal service but also freedom and snacks. Families join the 8:45 am service in the Church to take communion. The hope is that by the time our young people find themselves as choristers or acolytes during the main service, they will know the Episcopal service by heart and have it as the guiding principle in their heart for a lifetime.
