We’re back, and what a way to begin a new program year at Heavenly Rest!

Welcome Back Sunday was full of joy as our church gathered to worship, bless backpacks and students, and experience Christ's love! Following the service we shared in a festive coffee hour with music, games, face painting, and a photo booth! Together, we gave thanks to God for all that has been and looked ahead with excitement to all that this fall will bring.

Be sure to check out our new fall newsletter, available online and in print, to discover all the ways to worship, connect, grow, and serve this season.

Join us this Sunday at 8:30am for Rite I Spoken Eucharist or at 11:00am for our Rite II Choral Eucharist. Our 5:00pm Vespers returns next week with a beautiful evening of prayer in the style of Taizé. The program year is officially underway, and we can’t wait to share in all that God is doing here at CHR!

Jesus and Peter walking on the water is not a promise that the storms of life will pass us by. It is a promise that we will never face them alone.

Faith does not guarantee a life without suffering. It gives us hope amongst deep waters, a hand to reach when we feel like we’re drowning, and a God who meets us in the storm and reminds us that even death does not get the final word.

Faith doesn’t necessarily begin with a miracle. Often, it’s through faith that we begin to recognize the miracles God has been placing before us all along.

In this sermon from August 2, the Rev. Kate Malin reflects on how every Sunday we come with open hands to receive the Holy Eucharist, where sacrament shapes our vision, and Christ continues to meet us in ordinary and extraordinary ways.

We’d love to welcome you this Sunday. ⛪️

“With the abounding grace of God, with the burning of the bush, and the brightness of the sun, our layers of self-protective armor, and scales of security that we’ve built, will fall away.”

The Rev. Peyton Williams envisions what lies at the end of the path to God, and though arduous, how simple choosing that path can be.

Now, in the Episcopal Church, we love to focus on welcome. […] “Welcome to the Church of the Heavenly Rest, all are welcome here, all are welcome here.” But what does it mean, really, to welcome someone, really welcome them? To invite someone in with their full self?

This Sunday, The Rev. Julia Offinger visited Heavenly Rest to question what our Church means when we “welcome all,” how we follow through, and the ways God challenges our belief.
