Sunday Service at 10am: In-person and on Zoom
Whether it's your first Sunday or your five hundredth, here's a look at our worship service
Before worship begins, a lay or clergy member welcomes all to our service and invites us to offer up our prayers and be swept along by the beauty of our liturgy. We take our liturgy, but not ourselves, seriously.
Our worship service is an authentic expression of our community. There is an open and fluid relationship between the laity and clergy within our worship. A significant and diverse group of our parish serve as Eucharistic ministers, intercessors, ushers, bread bakers, Zoom hosts, and lectors.
Our choir is visibly indistinguishable from the non-choir members of our congregation, dressed for a Sunday morning worship service Portland style: fleece and the occasional Birkenstocks.
At the Peace, our community moves throughout the Sanctuary and within Zoom, sharing the Peace of Christ with old and new friends in every pew and Zoom window. When we exchange the Peace and enter into the Eucharist, the intentional hospitality of our community converges with the sacramental hospitality of the Eucharist.
The bread for Eucharist is home baked, gluten and nut-free, and sometimes still warm when it is served at the altar. Coffee is available in the Sanctuary throughout our service, and as the clink of ceramic cup and spoon co-mingles with the chanted Psalms, the authentic beauty our of our worship is created.
All are invited to join in the Eucharist, and this sense of sacred hospitality imbues every interaction on Sunday and differentiates it from mere friendliness. We invite all to God's table exactly as God made them: beautiful, imperfect, and human.
Join us in person every Sunday at 10 am at 2800 SE Harrison St, or on Zoom.
