Welcome — We’re Glad You’re Here
Whether you are exploring faith for the first time, returning to church after many years, visiting Palm Springs, or looking for a spiritual home, you are welcome here.
We are an Episcopal parish rooted in worship, compassion, community, and joyful service. Wherever you are on your spiritual journey, there is a place for you in this community.
What to Expect on Sundays
Worship
Our worship is grounded in the beauty and rhythm of the Episcopal tradition — scripture, prayer, music, silence, and Holy Communion.
You do not need to know when to stand, sit, or kneel. We provide worship bulletins, and friendly people are always happy to help guide you.
Communion
All are welcome to receive Communion in the Episcopal Church. If you prefer, you may also come forward for a blessing.
What Should I Wear?
Come as you are. Some people dress casually, others more traditionally. You will see everything from sandals to suits.
Parking & Accessibility
Parking is available onsite, and our campus is accessible for those with mobility needs
New to the Episcopal Church?
The Episcopal Church is part of the worldwide Anglican Communion and brings together ancient tradition and thoughtful, compassionate faith.

- Worship that is both reverent and welcoming
- Questions and lifelong spiritual growth
- Inclusion and belonging
- Service to the wider community
- The dignity of every human being
You do not have to have everything figured out before you arrive.
