New to Our Church?

We designed this section of the site with the first-time church visitor in mind. Our purpose is “to be disciples building Christ’s Kingdom” while ministering to the needs of the community and the world. Our congregation is a caring community, dedicated to equipping Christians for daily life and witness. Please feel free to e-mail or call to make us aware of any questions or needs you might have.

Where to Begin...

We hope that you’ll be able to come visit our church and will have a rich and meaningful worship experience. We count every visitor as a gift from God. We encourage you to visit us as many times as necessary to familiarize yourself with the church, the congregation and the worship services. When you are ready, we look forward to your becoming a member of the church family at St. Dunstan’s. Through our Adult Education Ministry, a two-step process for membership at St. Dunstan’s Episcopal Church is offered:

ALPHA

An introductory small group experience for unchurched and under-churched individuals wishing to explore what Christianity is all about, as well as an opportunity for Christians to review the basics of our faith. Read all about it on our Alpha Course page.

WELCOME TO THE EPISCOPAL CHURCH

For those new to the Episcopal Church, this class will explore the Prayer Book and liturgy, as well as the origins of the Church and our beliefs.
