OUR MISSION
St. Augustine of Canterbury Episcopal Church is a spiritually rich, family-oriented, inclusive congregation, committed to sharing God's love with all through worship, service, and study, guided by the Gospel of Jesus Christ and our Baptismal covenant.
St. Augustine's is a liturgical and sacramental faith community that’s grounded in catholic tradition and committed to progressive, reformed thought and action. This means our worship is guided by ancient practice but our beliefs aren’t stuck there.
St. A’s was founded in 1961 as a racially integrated and economically diverse congregation and this heritage continues to guide our Christian understanding of invitation, hospitality, and inclusion. We welcome all people regardless of ability, age, ethnicity, gender, marital status, nationality, race, sexual orientation, or socio-economic status into the life and ministry of the church.
We are a “Believe Out Loud” congregation – openly and intentionally welcoming our lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender siblings into the life and ministry of the parish.
For more information, feel free to call Bruce Banghart, Sr Warden at 269-277-3066.
