If you’ve never been to an Anglican service before, it’s nothing to be worried about. You’ll find that our worship service is marked by three things:
- Scriptural teaching and liturgy
- Spirit-filled prayer and singing
- Holy Eucharist (Communion)
Here are few things you might want to know before you come for the first time:
Where we are:
We meet in a church building owned by Middlebrook Christian Ministries, so that’s what the sign out front will say. If you think you’ll need help finding us, consult our Map & Directions.
When you get here:
We’re a community that is growing fast. In other words, at this point, we’ll probably notice that you’re new. So don’t be put off if somebody comes up and says “hello,” and wonders who you are, and even asks.
Once you get inside, make sure you get a service bulletin. This is your basic outline of the service as well as your hymn book.
During the service:
If you’ve been to another Anglican or an Episcopal service, you’ll find everything we do pretty familiar. If not, you’ll figure it out soon enough.
We say a lot of things as a church body in unison. All this is written in the bulletin you pick up on your way in. We encourage you to bring your own study Bible, but if you don’t have a Bible, the Scripture readings are printed in the bulletin.
We look forward to seeing you on Sunday.

The Discovery Course is designed to introduce our parish to anyone interested in learning more about Apostles Anglican Church. This 5-session course will give a basic overview of the following topics: our story and God’s vision for Apostles, our Anglican identity, our call to mission, and our call to discipleship. The final session in the Discovery Course is the Member Covenant session, where participants have the option to join the parish as a covenant member.
