The Episcopal Church in Okatie Priest in Charge - The Reverend Robert Trache

Holy Eucharist
Sundays at 10:00am
231 Hazzard Creek

On Easter Sunday in 2013 our small group of committed Episcopalians, without a church home, gathered before dawn on a Chechessee River dock to read Morning Prayer. A sudden, brilliant sunrise on the river’s horizon at the final “Amen” convinced everyone worshiping there that God was with us and He would show us the way to continue our Christian walk together. So with the help of Bishop Provisional

Charles von Rosenberg, Archdeacon Calhoun Walpole, and supply priests and liturgical gifts from near and far, we continued to worship on various docks until the low country’s famous no-see-ums and unpredictable summer weather forced us indoors. Pastor Renty Kitty and the members of Okatie’s Saint Luke Baptist Church generously opened their doors to our group for Sunday services while we looked for a permanent church home. Our Happy ParadeWith months of labor by dedicated members, a martial arts studio was converted into a chapel and the members of our fledgling Episcopal Church in Okatie celebrated the first Eucharist in our Hazzard Creek home on September 14, 2014. Two months later, delegates to the 234th Diocesan Convention voted to accept our worshiping group as a Mission and we were welcomed into full union with the Convention of The Episcopal Church in South Carolina.

All are welcome
In this week’s readings, God’s purposes move through betrayal, fear, and the howling wind, and cannot be stopped by any of them. Joseph is stripped of his robe and sold into Egypt by his own brothers, yet the psalm looks back on that same story and sees the hand of God working through every injustice toward a redemption no one could have predicted. Peter steps out of the boat toward Jesus, feels the wind, and begins to sink, but the hand that catches him is immediate and sure. Paul drives it home: the Word is not far off, not locked in heaven or the deep, but near us, on our lips and in our hearts, and how beautiful are the feet of those who carry it forward.
