Incredibly refreshing. This parish obviously has core values at odds with the majority of TEC. I think they also have a lot to teach the moribund quarters of the Episcopal Organisation.

Some key things that jumped out at me: this parish is unapologetically Protestant, and affirms the core tenets of the English Reformation. They are unafraid to emphasize orthodox doctrine. They put the spiritual growth of families first. They are outward-facing, not inward-oriented. There is no personality-driven rector bio on the site.

Take heed, Episcopalians.
