Worship at Ware

Our Theology of worship: Dwelling in Awe and Wonder

Awe and Wonder

God is a mystery: not a question to solve, but a reality to experience.  At Ware, we strive to come before our Lord in our worship so as to make space for awe and wonder -- to transcend place and time -- and to be connected to something greater than ourselves.  When you step into the Historic Church, you join the Saints who have been praying and worshipping at Ware for nearly four hundred years. 


A Familiar Pattern

Our worship service on Sunday follows the order of service from the Episcopal Church's Book of Common Prayer.  There are hymns, scripture readings, a message, and prayers for ourselves, our community, and our world.  


The Heart of Worship

The culmination of our worship is experienced in the practice of the Holy Eucharist.  Known in other Christian traditions as Holy Communion, the Lord's Supper, or the Mass -- it is the invocation of God's blessing over Bread and Wine, that for us reveals the mystery of God in Jesus Christ.  For Episcopalians, participating in the mystery of the Eucharist is the primary act of Christian worship.
