The Episcopal Church of the Advent
Welcome to the Church of the Advent
You will find the Advent on Advent Street, a short turn off East Main. The stone sanctuary invites quiet and focus. On Sundays the parish gathers for Holy Eucharist with Scripture, prayer, and hymns. The liturgy helps you slow down and hear God. Nursery and children’s ministry teams care for young families. Weekday Morning Prayer and midweek Eucharist keep you rooted between Sundays. If you value tradition and steady rhythms, this parish provides a clear path to follow Jesus with your whole life.
Formation matters here. Classes and Bible studies serve adults, students, and children. The parish supports neighbors through meals, mentoring, and practical care. Music enriches worship with choir and organ that lift the Word. You can join a ministry team, read Scripture in services, or help host guests. The Advent welcomes people with different backgrounds who want to grow in grace and truth. You will notice respect, warmth, and good order. Leaders communicate clearly, and the calendar stays steady so you can plan your week with confidence.
Plan your visit and get settled
Arrive a few minutes early to find parking near the Parish and Community Life Center. Greeters will direct you to the nave, Olney Chapel, or nursery. After worship, step into the courtyard to meet clergy and lay leaders. Ask about baptism, confirmation, or joining a small group. Explore weekday prayer if you want a daily anchor. You can learn more about beliefs, service times, and ministries on the parish website. If you need directions, use the map link below. We invite you to come and pray with us.
