happens every Sunday during worship. We offer two opportunities to learn more about the central act of worship in The Episcopal Church. Bring your questions and a pen so you may make notes on a service bulletin. We will address ways to prepare for worship, what takes place at each part of the liturgy, and ways to participate more deeply throughout.
An "Instructed Eucharist" is an experiential and interactive learning experience to build competency and participate in one's exercise of worship. How2charist.com is an online resource of The Episcopal Church that provides a series of short videos about the structure, meaning, and practice of worship in the liturgy of The Holy Eucharist.
