Church is the more traditional of our two
congregations. Music is currently led by Holy Trinity's music
director's, Scott and Tara Cameron while our organist is on an
extended sick leave. The services are usually Holy Eucharist following the Book of Alternative Services,
Page 185, except when the Rector is away and then BCP Morning Prayer
is used. A small Sunday School of about
10 children
is available at this service.
Holy Trinity has a more contemporary feel thanks
to the music led by the classical guitar duo CameronStrings.
Services are Book of Alternative Services - Holy Eucharist (Page 185)
except when the Rector is away and Morning Prayer from the Book of
Common Prayer is led by a lay reader.
Throughout the school year we have special
services led by the Children and Youth including the popular "Big
Question Sunday," in which a service is developed around
questions the children and youth have asked. The children gather
each Sunday for a story with the Rector and then proceed to Sunday
School. We have approximately 35 children in the Sunday School.
During the seasons of Advent and
Lent a Wednesday morning service of Holy Communion according to the
Book of Common Prayer is celebrated at 10:30am.
