WORSHIP

 "Give to the Lord the glory due to His name; worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness or in holy array."  Psalm 29:2

Worship is the focal point of our life together as a congregation. "Liturgy means, literally, "the work of the people."  As an Episcopal Church we rely upon The Book of Common Prayer.  It contains the forms of our rites and services, prayers that have been refined over generations of use, and much of the theology that expresses our faith and binds us together.  Our worship together, week after week, forms us as individuals and as a community to follow Christ and pursue His work in the world.  Each Sunday we are sent forth having been fed spiritually in preparation for the week ahead.

The experience of worship at Prince of Peace is warm and welcoming.  We work hard to produce excellent quality liturgies, but we are never stuffy.  We think you will find the experience of worship with us both joyous and inspiring.
