LEARN MORE ABOUT OUR GARDENS

We believe that children are an important part of our church family and they are fully welcomed to participate at all church events and activities. Intergenerational fellowship, formation and worship are one of the best parts of our life together. For children specifically, Sunday School (using the Godly Play model) is offered at 9:15.

Children (and grandchildren) are always welcomed to participate in church services, and there are small activity bags they may use for quiet activities.

A nursery for children 4 and under is available in the parish hall building from 9:00 until 12:00.

OUR LIFE TOGETHER

Episcopal worship follows an ancient pattern that dates to the earliest days of the Christian church. The first half of the Eucharist is the Liturgy of the Word the second half is the Liturgy of the Table, also called Holy Communion. If you’ve spent time in Episcopal, Roman Catholic, Lutheran, or Eastern Orthodox churches, much of our liturgy will seem familiar. If you’re unfamiliar with liturgical Christian worship, don’t worry. You’re welcome to participate as fully as is right for you, or to just relax into the liturgy and let the rest of the congregation carry you in worship.

Rector

Sarah Smith Halloran joined us in the spring of 2021 and loves being a part of the warm and inviting environment of Grace (Church) and the warm and inviting spirit of grace present in the “here-ness” of this space. An Air Force brat who ultimately came to call northwest Florida home, Sarah and her husband, Colin, moved to the Pike Road area after a decade on the east coast of North Carolina. Sarah graduated from Centre College with a degree in Physics and worked in both astronomy research and environmental consulting while working on a degree “just for fun” in Philosophy from the University of West Florida. After a career in camp and retreat ministry, focusing on environmental stewardship and synergy and leadership development, she received a Masters of Divinity degree from Duke Divinity School where she concentrated in Christian Formation.

Sarah spends every morning and evening outside on the porch and is often looking for other excuses to be outside. She enjoys hiking and kayaking, trying out new vegetarian recipes and wabi sabi style quilting. Sarah and Colin live in Old Cloverdale with their daughters Arden and Larkin, and three loveable mutts, Otter, Olive, and Atlas.
