Worship ServicesSundays at 10:30 a.m.
Traditional Episcopal worship has lots of music, scripture, prayer and reflection. We draw liturgy and music from around the globe. During the summer months, when life is less structured, the questions and wiggles of little ones bring life to the mix in the activities corner during service. ALL are welcome! worship.together
Sundays at 9:00 a.m. (Start up September 10, 2017) worship.together is a brief, participatory service for families with young children. Specifically designed with 0-5 year-olds in mind, this half-hour service helps engage children in story, song and prayer while helping to develop their sense of God. The service includes singing, a gospel story, liturgy, interactive prayers, and communion. Children (and parents/caregivers!) are invited to sit on the floor to experience the service firsthand, and participate in many aspects of the service by carrying the processional cross, assisting with serving communion, and offering their own prayers of intercession. Happy chatter and joyful wiggles are most welcome!

Rector's BlogInterfaith response to the noose in the tree at 18th and Lombard
On Thursday, July 6, a noose was found hanging from a tree on the southeast corner of 18th and Lombard. This abhorrent act will not divide us. Though the hate crime was directed at our African-American sisters and brothers, it was also an attack on the values of tolerance and diversity upon which Philadelphia was built and that Philadelphians hold dear. Thursday evening, July 13th, at 6 pm a group of concerned faith leaders from around Center City gathered at the tree to pray and publicly challenge the act of hate which was perpetrated to instill fear in a specific population of people. To make a witness of solidarity and concern and make a statement that this sort of intimidation cannot be part of the city or the world we build together. Then, on July 20 at 7 p.m. we will hold a public forum designed to educate all of us about the severity of this act of intimidation and offer opportunity for everyone to talk about its effects. We will demonstrate that we will not be silent in the face of racism nor complacent in our response to a challenge to community. The forum will be held at Trinity Memorial Church, 2212 Spruce St., Phila. 19103 Interfaith clergy leaders of Center City Philadelphia meet regularly for conversation and to plan events to draw together neighbors in order to build a better community. We represent Buddhist, Christian, Humanist, Jewish and Muslim traditions drawn together with the Center City Residents Association. When one part of the Body hurts, the whole Body must respond. Shalom, Donna+
Glory to God whose power, working in us, can do more than we can ask or imagine. |
