Baptism

If you are interested in being baptized or having your child baptized at Saint David's, please contact the Church office. We would love to talk to you about it!!

At each baptism, the congregation vows to “do all in our power to support [the people about to be baptized] in their life in Christ.” Immediately following the baptism itself, the congregation welcomes the newly baptized by saying, “We receive you into the household of God.” Through baptism, we are all brothers and sisters in Christ, with the opportunity and the obligation to care for each other.

Holy Communion

Our Prayerbook defines Holy Eucharist as “the principal act of Christian worship on the Lord’s Day and other major Feasts” (13). We offer services of Holy Communion virtually every Sunday at 8:00 and 10:00. The 8:00 service is a little more formal and traditional; the 10:00 service is a little more contemporary. All baptized Christians are welcome to share in Holy Communion around the altar. Ushers will tell you when to come forward. At the altar, you are welcome to stand or kneel, as you are able. The priest will come by with a small wafer; please hold out your hands to receive it. A member of the congregation will follow with a cup of wine. Please dip your wafer in the wine, consume the wafer, and return to your seat.  If you would like a brief special prayer, bring forward a ribbon (available from the usher). The priest will ask if you have a particular prayer request.  You are welcome to receive a brief blessing rather than communion if you prefer.
Confirmation and Reaffirmation
The Bishop will make his regular visitation to Saint David’s next February. To get ready for his visit, we will offer a series of sessions on “The Episcopal Way” in the Fall. These sessions will prepare participants for formal confirmation, reception, and/or reaffirmation of your baptismal vows. Please consider joining us even if you do not plan to be confirmed, received, or formally renewed—the sessions should be fun! Most likely we will meet on occasional Sundays at 11:45 through the Fall. But if you are interested in participating and that time is not good for you, please let Father Harvey know.
