St. Alban's Episcopal Church Bovina, MS

St. Alban's Episcopal Church Bovina, MS Sunday Eucharist: 8:30 am and 11:00 am
Wednesday Healing/Eucharist: 6:00 pm We are seven miles east of Vicksburg. The churchyard dates to pre-Civil War days.

Our church is located in a country setting in the tiny community of Bovina, Mississippi. As your car turns off the paved road and onto the slag drive, you approach St. Alban's Church on a circular drive way that is surrounded by Live Oaks and Cedar Trees. Spanish moss hangs from the limbs of the trees. A cemetery spills out across the lawn. Our country setting offers a serene atmosphere that is co

nductive to abiding in God's presence. Our community practices holy hospitality. We rely on one of Saint Benedict's Rules of Life as our standard: "Let all who enter here be welcomed as Christ." We are a community that seeks to serve Christ in each other and everyone we encounter. The interior of the church reflects the feel of the country with simple stained glass windows and an altar crafted from oak. A sense of the Holy permeates the landscape and the inscape. The celebration of the Holy Eucharist on Sunday mornings and Wednesday evenings is the starting point to learn more about the Episcopal Church. Each Eucharist is includes Old and New Testament readings, prayers, the offering of peace to each other, and Holy Communion. The members of St. Alban's Church are nourished by our communal worship and our participation in the sacraments. We feast on the Bread of Life and the Cup Salvation each time we come together for the Holy Eucharist.

St Alban’s, it has been my deepest privilege to be your priest for the past seven years. You have loved me, Buck, and the boys so well and have deeply shaped who I am as a priest. You indulged my fondness for cats and even went along with full-immersion baptism! That is why it is with great sadness, but also deep gratitude, that I will conclude my ministry as you rector on June 28.

In August, I will be heading to the Chapel of the Cross, Madison, as their associate rector, and to continue my work with our small churches as the Diocesan Missioner to Small Churches. While this was a hard decision, I have absolute confidence in St. Alban’s stability and resilience. You have taught me that true faithfulness shows up in small, consistent ways, and for that I will be forever thankful.

Hi, I’m the new guy! I heard about St. Alban’s famous hospitality and it looks like I’m sticking around. So far, Sallie Mae is tolerating me as long as I stay outside. Y’all haven’t figured out my name yet, but I hear I’ve got an appointment for vaccinations and something called neutering in a couple weeks. I’m very friendly and I have been treated for fleas and ticks, so petting is most welcome.
