Church of Our Saviour is a diverse and vibrant Christian community in the Episcopal tradition. We believe in caring for each other, serving the wider community, and being good stewards of the earth.
Our Faith
We are guided by the "three-legged stool" of Scripture, Tradition, and Reason. The Bible is primary; the Church's tradition and human reason illuminate its meaning for each generation.
We affirm the Apostles' Creed and the Nicene Creed as faithful summaries of the Christian faith. They unite us with Christians across centuries and denominations.
We celebrate Baptism and the Eucharist as the two sacraments ordained by Christ. The Lord's Supper is the central act of Anglican worship — we are fed by Christ's body and blood.
Our worship is shaped by the Book of Common Prayer — a treasury of Scripture, prayer, and liturgy that forms us in the faith and unites Anglicans worldwide.
We stand as a "middle way" — holding together Catholic order, evangelical faith, and Reformed theology. We welcome all to the table of grace in a spirit of generous orthodoxy.

Visiting Our Parish
Free parking is available on or near the church grounds, with a short, easy walk to the entrance.
Children are warmly welcomed in worship and in Children's Learning programs. The parish intentionally practices all-age worship, so families never need to worry about wiggles or noise.
First-time visitors are welcomed without pressure. Arrive a few minutes early, sit wherever you're comfortable, and a greeter or fellow parishioner will help you follow the service and the prayer book. There is nothing you need to do or know in advance.
The church welcomes everyone and aims to make worship accessible to all. For specific accessibility needs, contact the parish office at office@church-of-our-saviour.org before your visit.
Coffee hour follows the service, offering a relaxed chance to meet the rector, clergy, and members of the congregation over coffee and refreshments.
