St. Richard's Episcopal Church

05/25/2025

t's been 40 years of faith in action at St. Richard's Episcopal Church! If you've ever attended St. Richard's in the past or have thought about doing so in the future, you're invited to attend the 40th anniversary of our church building dedication on Sunday, June 1st. We'll hold our regular Sunday service at 9:00 followed by a barbecue reception, and Bishop John Taylor will be a special guest at a final pastoral visitation before his expected retirement in 2026.

Please save the date and join us! The church is located on Highway 18 across from the Sky View Inn in Skyforest.

Her statements about what she has found that feed her in the Episcopal church are facinating and resonate with me (Susan) about why I love the sacramental and liturgical life of the Episcopal church.

My favorite quote from the article: Death is something empires worry about, not something resurrection people worry about."

What about you, why are you Episcopalian, and have you ever been anything else?

(note: the title of this article is misleading... Evangelicals do celebrate sacraments and Rachel Held Evans doesn't say they don't. But internet titles are intentionally incendiary to get you to click through)

The wildly popular Christian writer offers an exclusive sneak peek into her new book and its pointed message.
