Worship and Liturgy
This parish honors the Anglican heritage of the Book of Common Prayer, brought to Maryland in the 17th Century and embodied in the liturgical style inspired by the Rt. Rev. William Whittingham, who was the Bishop of Maryland when the parish was founded. He was an able and persuasive champion of “Ecclesiology” in architecture and worship, a harmony of the catholic and the evangelical. We use both the traditional Rite I and contemporary Rite II services of the Eucharist and Morning Prayer, with strong Biblical preaching, active participation by the laity, and, most notably for a relatively small country parish, glorious music led by a large and proficient choir supported by the new Cassavant organ and occasional instrumentalists. From time to time we also enjoy sharing special songs with the Church School children. |
