Worship

As one would expect, the primary focus at Good Shepherd is in our worship of God, typically the Holy Eucharist (Communion).  While grounded in the tradition of the Book of Common Prayer, our worship utilizes a variety of innovative Episcopal worship materials, passing authentic prayers in elegant, contemporary language that represents the voices of today’s seekers.  Sunday worship at 10:00 am features a sung service with vocal and organ /piano music in a variety of styles, and our clergy’s sermons make meaningful connections between scripture, spirituality, and the joys and challenges of real life.  We spend time reflecting together on the sermon and scriptures.

Our friendly, vibrant congregation includes all ages; ‘cradle’ Episcopalians and converts to the Anglican tradition; straight and gay, married, partnered, and single adults; and children. Newcomers are always welcome to our worshiping community and our blend of traditional and progressive belief.

Sunday Worship ‘sends us forth’ to provide a viable and welcoming presence on the Mid-Peninsula for both our parishioners and the hundreds of children and adults who utilize our facilities every day of every week.  We are always ready to welcome new participants!
