FAQ

What if I am not Anglican?

We welcome all Christians to worship with us. "Anglicanism" describes the form and heritage of our expression of faith, but the faith itself is "Mere Christianity" to use the phrase made famous by C.S. Lewis (himself an Anglican).

What About Communion?

We invite all Christians who have been baptized in the name of the Triune God (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) to partake of the Holy Eucharist. 


Simply receive the host in your hands (or directly on the tongue) and guide the chalice to your lips. 


We also offer Holy Communion by intinction (meaning we dip the consecrated bread in the consecrated wine and place it on the communicant’s tongue).


A person may also receive in one kind (meaning just the consecrated bread, received in the communicant’s palm). Place one 


People refraining from receiving Holy Communion, either because they are not yet baptized or for conscience’s sake, can still come forward and receive a blessing.

Do you have a Nursery/Sunday School?

Nursery: We currently do not have a staffed  nursery, but we do welcome all children into the life of the church and encourage their participation in the liturgy and worship of our Christ our Savior.  We do have a nursery room for mothers to take their children should they so desire. There are coloring/activity sheets that pertain to the Scripture readings of the day available for your children during the service.  


Christian Formation: We currently have an all church Christian Formation Class (Sunday School) that follows most Communion services except for Potluck Sundays. We also take a break from class during the summer. Please see the Parish Calendar for more details. Anyone of any age is welcome. We cover a variety of topics, including Biblical Studies, Anglican Formation, Church History, and Apologetics & Culture.

What prayer book do you use?

Church of Our Savior worships with the 2005 Book of Common Prayer of the Reformed Episcopal Church (a traditional prayer book which synthesizes elements of the 1662 BCP and the 1928 BCP). Physical Prayer Books are provided for you in the pews.  You may also access a PDF here.
