Join us for an efficient celebration prayer service in the Fountain Courtyard on Saturday, July 4 at 9:30 am. This will commemorate how the birth of these United States and the establishment of The Episcopal Church are inextricably linked. This nation was born by revolution to cast off the bondage of monarchy and step into the liberty of self-governance by peers. That catapulted this denomination out of the Church of England, with the monarch of England as our head, into the experiment of The Episcopal Church. History shows our legacy is not always wise or compassionate, but there is no doubt we have had a profound impact on the formation of this nation and the Anglican Communion.
