Worship

Worship is at the center of the life of Saint Paul’s Church. Liturgies (worship services) are currently held online via Zoom.

Whether you are a lifetime Episcopalian, a Christian exploring the Episcopal tradition, an inquirer and spiritual wanderer, or somewhere in between, please know that you are always welcome to worship at Saint Paul’s Church on Lake of the Isles.

As an Episcopal Church, liturgies at Saint Paul’s follow the forms for worship outlined in the Book of Common Prayer. Our worship lasts anywhere from 30 minutes (Morning Prayer) to a little over an hour (Holy Eucharist).

Holy Eucharist, Rite II – Sundays at 10:00 am 

The Celebration of Holy Eucharist is the primary way Christians have worshipped since the very earliest days of the Church. As we gather each week as a community around the Risen Christ, we continue to participate in the work of Jesus Christ. His continued presence among us animates and empowers of work of service and compassion in the world.

This is a joyous, musical celebration of Word and Sacrament that incorporates Anglican chant, traditional hymnody, ancient and modern texts, and meditative 21st century music. This service blends ancient and modern and includes a sermon that occurs each Sunday at 10:00 am.

On Fridays
Join Us for Fellowship at 9:45am
Morning Prayer at 10:00am

The Daily Office, rich in language and imagery, is an ancient practice marking morning, noon, evening, and bedtime with daily prayers. For Episcopalians, this generally comes in the form of the two main offices of Morning Prayer (BCP page 75) and Evening Prayer (BCP p.115). These liturgies, as set forth by the Book of Common Prayer, may be officiated by laypeople, and prayed communally or individually.

On Wednesdays 8:00pm
Sung Compline

Join us for Sung Compline, a contemplative oasis for your midweek: gather on Zoom at 7:45pm to greet your neighbors, then the bells sound at 8:00pm for Compline. We depart in silence, refreshed.
