SUNDAY BULLETIN

Good Christian liturgy is friendship in action, love taking thought... 
thought-through and relished, planned and prepared;  
a way for the relationship to grow and at the same time 
a way of demonstrating what the relationship is all about.    (NT Wright)

We're learning about how to do landscape and how not to do landscape in Facebook Live. Thanks for hanging in there through the ups and downs (literally). Pro tip... If you have a laptop, turn it on its side for better viewing.

Easter Sunday (part 1)

Easter Sunday (part 2)

Good Friday

Palm Sunday

We worship in the Anglican-Episcopal tradition. It's a rich tradition using ancient & historic prayers in modern language, using ritual and symbol that engages all the senses - sight, sound, smell, touch and taste - in prayer and praise.

We use the Book of Common Prayer (1979) to order our worship, we use the Revised Common Lectionary to guide our Sunday Scripture lessons, and a good dose of humor to remember joy, and to not take ourselves too seriously even as we take our worship seriously.

A few tips...

• Name Tags: We use name tags not only to help us get to know our visitors more easily and vice versa, but to refresh our memories about who we are. We're a friendly bunch!

• Holy Communion: All who desire a deeper walk with Christ are welcome at the altar for Holy Communion of bread and/or wine. You may drink from the chalice or dip the bread in the chalice before eating it. If you need a gluten free bread, please inform the priest at the altar rail. If you do not wish to receive Communion but wish a blessing, cross your arms over your chest. Or you may remain in your pew. 

• The Prayers of the People: To add names to the list of names prayed for in the Prayers of the People you may tell a priest or a member of the Bishop's Committee at any time, contact the church office, or speak the name aloud at designated time.. Names typically stay on the prayer list 6-8 weeks and then are removed, unless informed earlier.
• Child Care:  The nursery is through the double glass doors at the front foyer. If needed, ask an usher for help, they'll be happy to guide you. 
• Large Print BCP's (Books of Common Prayer): These are available in pew backs throughout the church.
• eBulletins  -  An electronic bulletin with all readings, prayers, responses and music for use on your tablet each Sunday is attached to the weekly St Aidan ePistle, our weekly email newsletter. Click here to receive the ePistle.
• Quiet Meditation: After the welcome and before the opening hymn is a period for silent meditation. Being quiet before worship prepares us for what is to come.  

Whoever you are, wherever you find yourself on the journey of faith, you are welcome at St Aidan's just as you are.

​Music at St. Aidan’s is God focused and inspiring.  Sunday morning at the 10:00 am service classic church hymnody and contemporary music adorns the Rite II service.  As professionally trained musicians, the choir director and the pianist/organist use their talents and expertise to lead the congregation and the choir.  The choir director works closely with the Vicar in choosing music that supports themes of the day. Choir festivals add opportunities for singing God’s praises and enjoying fellowship. St. Aidan’s hosts the Stanwood-Camano Messiah sing-along each year, inviting local artists to perform in the orchestra or sing solos.
