Is it I, Lord? | St. Mary's Episcopal Church

Discerning Ministry

In the Episcopal Church, every baptized person is called to bear witness to Jesus Christ and carry out Christ’s work in the world according to the gifts we have been given. That work is our ministry, and we are all ministers of Christ.

At St. Mary's, one of the ways we live out our ministries is in elected positions: as Vestry members, on the Thomas Center and Creative Playschool boards, and as delegates to the Deanery and to Diocesan Convention.

Do you feel called to serve in the new year? Do you know someone whose gifts of ministry would be a gift to St. Mary's? We ask that you give these questions thought and prayer. You can read more about the duties of delegates and vestry members in the Discerning Ministry document below, and submit a nomination to the church office using the form below that.

Nomination Sheet (for submission to the office)

We Believe:

...that God is calling us to grow and deepen our relationship with God in Christ Jesus, by becoming an ever more active inviting, inclusive and multicultural community of faith, intentionally inter-generational from infant to elder, always reaching out to those within and outside our community, with many small group opportunities in which to share and live our faith. We'd love for you to be a part of our lives together.

Giving is a powerful spiritual practice. It's a statement of gratitude and trust in God.

At St. Mary's we encourage all our members to prayerfully consider giving abundantly toward causes that serve God's mission. We ask that part of that intentional giving be a pledge of financial support to our parish, both so our leadership can plan ahead in making a budget, and as a tangible commitment to what God is doing here at St. Mary's. Make your pledge for 2022
