St. Matthew’s: 8 AM, Rite I & 10:45 AM, Rite II
St. John’s: 9 AM, Rite II
St. John’s: 9 AM, Rite II
Sometimes an open door is all you need. You’re not looking for a church to tell you its own version of right and wrong. You’re not looking for a church that has all the answers, or a church that includes on the right kind of people.
You’re looking for a church where you can bring your doubts, your questions, and your fears, and find a welcoming, affirming, open community willing to share them. Within, you will find a quiet place for prayer and a nurturing community ready to help you find your voice and your vocation to the world in Christ’s name.
Come and see.
To keep up with all the The Episcopal Church in Garrett County is doing, Follow Us on Facebook, watch our Sunday Morning Livestreams on YouTube, and listen to daily Morning Prayer Podcasts on PodBean, or through Apple Podcasts.
COME ONE, COME ALL! ALL CREATURES, GREAT AND SMALL!
Our St. Francis Day Pet Blessing is set for THIS SUNDAY, OCTOBER 6th! We will be blessing your pets at the 9AM service at St. John's and at the 10:45 service at St. Matthew's. (The 8AM service at St. Matthew's will be pet-free.) Please make sure your pet is on a leash or in a carrier.
ALL PETS ARE WELCOME!
Just because a pet may not fit through our doors doesn't mean they can't come! We will come out to them in their trailer to bless them.
We're looking forward to blessing our furry friends again. We hope to see you on Sunday! ... See MoreSee Less

Our pleasure!
Due to an internet outage in the area on Wednesday, July 17th, we were unable to live-stream Diane Thayer's funeral.
However, Chris Fredlock recorded the service and uploaded it to the C&S Fredlock Funeral Home website under Diane's obituary. You can watch the service here:

Scaled-down installation planned for Presiding Bishop-elect Sean Rowe
“With gratitude to all involved, I have decided to begin this ministry in a new way,” [Episcopal Church Presiding Bishop-elect] Rowe said. “With a simple service at the Church Center that will include everyone via livestream, we can care for God’s creation by reducing our collective carbon footprint. I have great respect and admiration for the ministry of Washington National Cathedral. My seating will take place in the following months, and I am grateful to Dean Hollerith and the cathedral staff as we plan for that event.” Episcopal Diocese of Washington
