Welcome to St. Aidan's Episcopal Church:

If you are coming for a visit, I hope you will go away both inspired and refreshed. If you are looking for a church community to join, I would like to tell you a bit about St. Aidan's.

We are an Episcopal Church community with members of all ages, several races and nationalities, men and women. We are also a welcoming and affirming congregation for lesbians and gay men. As a congregation of just under 150 members (including the babies), we have been able to appreciate an "extended family" atmosphere in our congregation. We particularly invite students to be part of this family. St. Aidan's is a good place to come and be involved and known in a very short period of time.

Our most important time together is our Sunday morning worship services at 8:30 AM and 11:00 AM. In addition some people enjoy the Wednesday evening Healing Service for its quiet and calm.

St. Aidan's has a healthy tradition of offering additional educational or spiritual growth opportunities and a large percentage of the congregation also participate in these as each person recognizes his or her own need to be on a spiritual journey and to make faith commitments.

For 30 years we have been in an ecumenical relationship with Northside Presbyterian and much of our richness comes from our shared study, social action and worship with the Presbyterians.

Many St. Aidanites report that St. Aidan's has for them been a spiritual home, a place of healing, a community of nurturance, and a church of challenge.

Faithfully,

The Rev. Susan E. McGarry
