My first visit to Emmanuel reached deep in my soul. I have always been an Episcopalian; I love the Liturgy and the beautiful hymns. But worship had become routine. At Emmanuel, the worship experience went beyond this. It was a community that worshipped deeply - to me it was palpable. It is also a community of fellowship that goes beyond the service and coffee hour.

There is so much room for all of us to participate. No one, myself included, would ever have thought that I would grow in my faith to a degree that I would become a Vestry member, a Sr. Warden, a member of the choir, a crucifer, a chalice bearer, a lector, deliver a homily, lead morning prayer, participate in extracurricular worship activities and spend time with friends made at Church.

Emmanuel....with God, helps me understand that life is good!
