Scripture: 1 Corinthians 11:24b

Wash each other's feet.

We have been spending a lot of time washing hands, but to wash the feet is a different kind of washing. It was, in Jesus time, a way of showing hospitality as people came into your home. After walking on dirt roads in sandals, their feet were dirty. It was a sign that you were welcomed, a sign that you can rest.

If you don't have somoene else's feet to wash, take the time to intentionally wash your own feet. What do you notice?

Holy Eucharist

Sunday, August 14, 9:00 AM - 10:00 AM

Worship in the Episcopal Church rests on scripture and the traditions of the elegant language of the Book of Common Prayer. While the worship might seem more formal than spontaneous, we reliably read scripture every time we worship together, and we follow the liturgy that has stood the test of time. Our worship is in letting the liturgy carry us along into a deeper spiritual awareness and connection with God.
