What to expect: If
you are not used to churches, the very thought of walking through the
door can be
intimidating. So, here's what you can expect on a
Sunday. If you arrive in time for the start of the service the
doors will be open (later on we have to lock them
-- but there's a bell you can ring that will get
someone's attention without disturbing the service. We are quite
used to people arriving
late). Someone will greet you at the
door and give you a service sheet, a hymn book and a liturgy
booklet. They will also help you find someone to sit with if you
would like. In general we stand to sing, kneel to pray, and sit to listen to the readings and sermon. But feel free to do whatever feels comfortable. If you would like to receive communion, simply come to the altar with everyone else. When we take communion, we receive both bread and wine, which is the norm in all Episcopal churches. If you would rather not receive, you are welcome to come up for a blessing -- just keep your hands folded or by your side so that the priest knows not to give you communion. After
the service, we meet for coffee in the hall.
