In worship, the people of St. Alban's celebrate the steadfast love of God in Christ through prayer, praise, music and learning.  We welcome all people and embrace each other with love and acceptance. Worship services are held each Sunday at 8:00 AM and 10:3o AM.


Our liturgy is a rich resource for entering into worship. The early service uses Rite I liturgy from the Episcopal Book of Common Prayer, while the 10:30 service usually uses the more contemporary language of Rite II. The liturgy is often printed in the bulletin for each service so worshipers can easily follow along. (There are also copies of the Prayer Book in the pews.) 


Special days in the Christian calendar are celebrated with worship services that make use of dedicated music, liturgy and prayers. Dates and times for these services are published on our web site and in our newsletter. 


Most of our worship services include a celebration of the Eucharist (Communion). All baptised Christians are welcome to take part, regardless of their denomination. Those who do not wish to take the bread and wine are welcome to join participants at the altar rail to receive a blessing, if they choose.
