Christmas, 2012 came early to St. Raphael's when Father Don Nicholson, and Jerry, along with some financial help from a group of anonymous Elves, were able to present the church with a wonderful new "Rolen. electronic piano. The piano was completely paid for through donations. Last Sunday, Jerry treated the congregation to the elegant sound, and beautiful smoothe tones of the instrument. The piano can also be played as an organ, creating a rich diverse musical experience. Thanks to all who helped bring this significant enhancement to the prayerful music program of St. Raphael's

                             Healing Service

A new service has been added to the schedule at Historic St. Raphael’s Church. Every Thursday evening at 6:00 Father Don is conducting a healing service in the Chapel of the Holy Comforter. The 30 minute service includes scripture readings, prayers, meditation, and anointing with oil. After the service, a light supper is served in the parish hall.

Who are we?

We are the ones who share bread and wine

At a common table of thanks-giving.

We are the ones who honor God
In Worship, study and prayer.

We are the ones who reject
Indifference, brutality and greed

And return to the God of
Engagement, compassion and generosity.
