The Episcopal Church is one branch of the world-wide Anglican Communion numbering millions of members in over 100 countries. It is often described as the "bridge church" because it includes both Catholic and Protestant traditions. It preserves the ancient Catholic faith and sacraments and the historic ministry with Bishops as its chief pastors. Episcopal comes from the Greek word for Bishop. It is at the same time Protestant, focusing on the basic authority of Holy Scriptures and the proclamation of the Word of God.

Our Sunday worship service is called The Holy Eucharist. Eucharist is a Greek word which means thanksgiving and refers to the Lord's Table, Holy Communion, or the Mass. We use that term because our Sunday service is always a joyful service of giving thanks and praise to God

There are three books used in our worship service. They are the Bible, which is regularly read throughout the church year, the Book of Common Prayer which contains the orders for ordinary worship and other services, Psalms, the Ordinal and prayers; and the Hymnal which contains hymns and chants.
