Sunday Worship
The focus of our life together is our worship, and Episcopal worship is rich in symbolism and tradition while maintaining its relevance to this time, place, and culture.
Sunday morning worship is held, both in-person and online, at 10:00 am. The service is typically around one hour in length and includes music. At St. Anselm's, we believe in keeping service fresh and thoughtful, which is why we draw from the rich variety offered in the global communion of Anglican churches for our prayers and readings.
During this long season after Pentecost, our liturgy is being drawn from Enriching Our Worship, an approved supplemental text from the Episcopal Church, the New Zealand Prayer Book, and the traditional Book of Common Prayer.
Worship at St. Anselm’s reflects our belief that there are many ways to worship, pray, express our faith. All services are celebrations of Holy Communion.
In-Person Worship
Per the Diocese of California, in-person worship is allowed under the following conditions:
- Masks are optional for all in the congregation.
- Communion wine will be offered in a common chalice, but individual serving cups are available for those who prefer that method.
- Please stay at home if feeling unwell.

Worship is available online via zoom, and attendees online will be able to offer prayers that will be heard by congregants in the church building, bringing us all into communion.
