The sacrament of Christ's body and blood, and the principal act of Christian worship. The term is from the Greek, “thanksgiving.” Jesus instituted the eucharist “on the night when he was betrayed.” At the Last Supper he shared the bread and cup of wine at a sacred meal with his disciples. He identified the bread with his body and the wine with his blood of the new covenant. Jesus commanded his disciples to “do this” in remembrance of him (see 1 Cor 11:23-26; Mk 14:22-25; Mt 26:26-29; Lk 22:14-20). Christ's sacrifice is made present by the eucharist, and in it we are united to his one self-offering (BCP, p. 859). The Last Supper provides the basis for the fourfold eucharistic action of taking, blessing, breaking, and sharing. Christ's body and blood are really present in the sacrament of the eucharist and received by faith. Christ's presence is also known in the gathered eucharistic community.

In the BCP, the whole service is entitled the Holy Eucharist. The first part of the service is designated the Word of God. It usually includes the entrance rite, the lessons and gradual psalm, the gospel, the sermon, the Nicene Creed, the prayers of the people, the confession of sin and absolution, and the peace. The second portion of the service is designated the Holy Communion. It includes the offertory, the consecration of the bread and wine in the Great Thanksgiving, the communion of the people, and the concluding prayers of thanksgiving and dismissal. A blessing may be given prior to the dismissal.

The eucharist is also called the Lord's Supper, Holy Communion, the Divine Liturgy, the Mass, and the Great Offertory (BCP, p. 859). The Hymnal 1982 includes a section with a variety of hymns for the Holy Eucharist (300-347), including “Come, risen Lord, and deign to be our guest” (305-306), “My God, thy table now is spread” (321), “Now, my tongue, the mystery telling” (329-331), and “I am the bread of life” (335).

Officiated by Father Dion, Thursday Evening Prayer is an online-led service of the Daily Office.

One of the principal Daily Offices. Evening Prayer has been the title for the Evening Office in Anglican worship since the 1552 revision of the Prayer Book. The BCP provides forms for Daily Evening Prayer in traditional and contemporary language (pp. 61, 115). Evening Prayer may begin with an opening sentence of scripture and with the confession of sin. The Invitatory may include the canticle Phos Hilaron, an ancient hymn praising Christ at the lighting of lamps at sunset. The office continues with a selection from the Psalter, readings from scripture followed by canticles (typically the Magnificat and Nunc dimittis), the Apostles' Creed, the Lord's Prayer, a set of suffrages, one or more collects, and the dismissal. One of the two suffrages is a version of the litany in the Evening Office of Eastern Orthodox churches with images of evening and death. Evening Prayer may also include an office hymn or anthem, the General Thanksgiving, a Prayer of St. Chrysostom, and a concluding sentence of scripture.

The ECOTR choir, headed by Eric Hileman and Marc Lau, is a wonderfully assembled ensemble of talented vocalists and musicians. Music is part of the heart of what we do to worship God. If you’re interested in joining the choir, please contact the church office, and we will connect you with Eric.

Our young people have the opportunity to grow in a safe environment, helping others as they become more and more aware of God’s presence and their own theology. We encourage curiosity, fun, excitement, and an overall ‘voice’ from our youth. Led by Trina Jones, this faithful group of individuals continuously seeks to add more to themselves and add more new friends into their group.

An ancient liturgy practiced throughout the ages, Morning Prayer allows us to center ourselves for the day to come. While we are currently only offering Morning Prayer once a week, our aim is to broaden these opportunities to include Monday, Wednesday and Thursday eventually. Please come and start your day with prayer! Prayer services held in the Chapel.

Participating in the Mobile Meals program is a great community outreach for the church and any volunteers.  We feel that we are not just delivering a meal, but a smile and maybe the only human interaction that our clients may have that day.  We also “get much more than we give” through participating in this much-needed program.  We are always in need of additional volunteers and would invite anyone interested in joining us to contact the office.

The BCP provides forms for Daily Evening Prayer in traditional and contemporary language (pp. 61, 115). Evening Prayer may begin with an opening sentence of scripture and with the confession of sin. The Invitatory may include the canticle Phos Hilaron, an ancient hymn praising Christ at the lighting of lamps at sunset. The office continues with a selection from the Psalter, readings from scripture followed by canticles (typically the Magnificat and Nunc dimittis), the Apostles' Creed, the Lord's Prayer, a set of suffrages, one or more collects, and the dismissal. One of the two suffrages is a version of the litany in the Evening Office of Eastern Orthodox churches with images of evening and death. Evening Prayer may also include an office hymn or anthem, the General Thanksgiving, a Prayer of St. Chrysostom, and a concluding sentence of scripture.

The ECOTR choir, headed by Eric Hileman and Marc Lau, is a wonderfully assembled ensemble of talented vocalists and musicians. Music is part of the heart of what we do to worship God. If you’re interested in joining the choir, please contact the church office, and we will connect you with Eric.

Our young people have the opportunity to grow in a safe environment, helping others as they become more and more aware of God’s presence and their own theology. We encourage curiosity, fun, excitement, and an overall ‘voice’ from our youth. Led by Trina Jones, this faithful group of individuals continuously seeks to add more to themselves and add more new friends into their group.

The sacrament of Christ's body and blood, and the principal act of Christian worship. The term is from the Greek, “thanksgiving.” Jesus instituted the eucharist “on the night when he was betrayed.” At the Last Supper he shared the bread and cup of wine at a sacred meal with his disciples. He identified the bread with his body and the wine with his blood of the new covenant. Jesus commanded his disciples to “do this” in remembrance of him (see 1 Cor 11:23-26; Mk 14:22-25; Mt 26:26-29; Lk 22:14-20). Christ's sacrifice is made present by the eucharist, and in it we are united to his one self-offering (BCP, p. 859). The Last Supper provides the basis for the fourfold eucharistic action of taking, blessing, breaking, and sharing. Christ's body and blood are really present in the sacrament of the eucharist and received by faith. Christ's presence is also known in the gathered eucharistic community.

In the BCP, the whole service is entitled the Holy Eucharist. The first part of the service is designated the Word of God. It usually includes the entrance rite, the lessons and gradual psalm, the gospel, the sermon, the Nicene Creed, the prayers of the people, the confession of sin and absolution, and the peace. The second portion of the service is designated the Holy Communion. It includes the offertory, the consecration of the bread and wine in the Great Thanksgiving, the communion of the people, and the concluding prayers of thanksgiving and dismissal. A blessing may be given prior to the dismissal.

The eucharist is also called the Lord's Supper, Holy Communion, the Divine Liturgy, the Mass, and the Great Offertory (BCP, p. 859). The Hymnal 1982 includes a section with a variety of hymns for the Holy Eucharist (300-347), including “Come, risen Lord, and deign to be our guest” (305-306), “My God, thy table now is spread” (321), “Now, my tongue, the mystery telling” (329-331), and “I am the bread of life” (335).

An ancient liturgy practiced throughout the ages, Morning Prayer allows us to center ourselves for the day to come. While we are currently only offering Morning Prayer once a week, our aim is to broaden these opportunities to include Monday, Wednesday and Thursday eventually. Please come and start your day with prayer! Prayer services held in the Chapel.

Participating in the Mobile Meals program is a great community outreach for the church and any volunteers.  We feel that we are not just delivering a meal, but a smile and maybe the only human interaction that our clients may have that day.  We also “get much more than we give” through participating in this much-needed program.  We are always in need of additional volunteers and would invite anyone interested in joining us to contact the office.
