Our Worship Reflects our Openness as a Community
Our service is comprised of uplifting music, Episcopal worship and spiritual/biblical teachings by our Rector.

All parts of the service are considered important aspects of the whole experience. The combination of worshiping together, mixed with the opportunity to socialize with one another after the service, remains vitally important to everyone. At Gloria Dei, you quickly become a member of this extended family.

The Liturgy at Gloria Dei is truly the work of the family of Gloria Dei. Without question, it reflects the openness and flexibility which characterize our parish community as a whole.

While we are always a work in progress, Gloria Dei strives to be a place where all will feel welcome in faith and spirit.
