Evangelism

There is an old joke about the Episcopal Church and Evangelism, that our approach is to put a fish tank next to the ocean and wait to see what jumps in. Well, there might be some truth to that!  In good ways it is not important to us what you wear, whether you know the Anglican names for all the furniture, or if you lived in Virginia fifty years or two weeks.  Come as you are. 

So, don't be afraid to come to church - we won't chase you down the block with pamphlets and pledge cards. 

But we will welcome you into our church home, help you find your way through the liturgy, ply you with coffee and treats, send you a newsletter, give you a call or text if you like, and remember your name the next time you come, or when we see you out and about in the neighborhood.  We'd like to say hello and get to know you!

 So - go ahead - jump on in!  The water is fine!
