I'm New Here!
We understand that it can be intimidating walking into a new place with new faces. And it can be especially intimidating if it's your first time in a new church! We want to assure you that everyone is welcome at St Mary's - whether you were raised Anglican and haven't been to church in years, or whether you're just interested in checking it out to see if it's the congregation for you.
If you are familiar with Anglican traditions, but not sure that you remember all the specifics, never fear! Our service bulletin clearly lays everything out for you, seamlessly guiding us from prayer book to hymn book throughout the service.
But What If I've Never Been to an Anglican Church Before?
First off, welcome! We're happy that you've chosen to explore your faith together with our St Mary congregation. As Anglicans, we are proud to share centuries of traditions, music, images and literature with you in a reflective and meditative space.
Here are some links we think might be helpful!
