Hi, this is a question about your church services.
Do you have communion every Sunday, or is there morning prayer, or both?

Someone asked whether Saint Thomas of Canterbury Anglican Church offers Holy Communion EVERY Sunday at 10:45 AM. The short answer is Yes, on MOST Sundays (that is, whenever Father Fred Erb, our Priest-in-Charge, or another licensed priest (or deacon), is available). If Father Fred is away and no substitute priest is scheduled, we still offer Morning Prayer (including hymns, and a sermon). A licensed, experienced lay reader will officiate. In this way, the church is able to provide either Holy Communion or Morning Prayer without fail, each and every Sunday morning beginning at 10:45 AM!
If you are driving from a distance and wish to confirm that there WILL be a worship service on a given Sunday morning, please feel free to contact Father Fred Erb at (814) 207-3109 or Mr. Walter Swoope, Vestryman and Warden, at (814) 342-3723.
