WELCOME TO SAINT MARY’S

A spiritual home with a lot to offer

Saint Mary’s Episcopal Church is a spiritual home that blends innovation and sacred tradition. In our nurturing community, people can be themselves. We welcome questions and doubts. We challenge one another to partner with God to work for justice and peace.

A MESSAGE FROM OUR RECTOR​

The Reverend Lindsey Briggs+

(She/They)

Welcome. We’re glad you found us. As you browse this website, we hope you discover our passion for following the way of Jesus in these complicated and violent times. We are small enough that folks can learn your name and large enough to build power for collective social change. In our services and gatherings we carve out spaces for celebration, heartache, loss, and joy.

As you look around, maybe you’ll find resonances with your own life. We pray that those who need a spiritual home will find their way to us, online or IRL (in real life). Ultimately, our deepest prayer is that God guides you to where you need to be to thrive!

Meet our church leaders
Upcoming Events​

We get together in all sorts of configurations – big parties with karaoke and piñatas, or smaller get-togethers like the monthly community dinner.  You will find fun, inspiration, and friendly faces when you join us on Sunday or at any gathering.
