We are a small Episcopal Church on the banks of the Rappahannock in Port Royal, Virginia. We acknowledge that we gather on the traditional land of the first people of Port Royal, the Nandtaughtacund, who are still here, and we honor with gratitude the land itself and the life of the Rappahannock Tribe. Our mission statement is to do God’s Will in all that we do.

Sunday Links, Oct. 22, 2023

The focus this Sunday continues to be the stewardship campaign, All Saints (in two weeks) and collection for the ECM Thanksgiving. The service revolved around Psalm 96 “Sing to the Lord a new song… Proclaim the good news of his salvation from day to day.”
