A Message from the Rector 

Dear Friends,

Welcome to Immanuel on the Green!

I hope that you are encouraged by what you see on our website and will plan on visiting Immanuel Church in the near future. We are sure to be enriched by your presence.

The Book of Common Prayer describes the mission of the Church in this way: "The mission of the Church is to restore all people to unity with God and each other in Christ... The Church pursues its mission as it prays and worships, proclaims the Gospel, and promotes justice, peace, and love... The Church carries out its mission through the ministry of all its members." (BCP 1979 p. 855)

Immanuel’s worship, Christian formation programs, Outreach projects, and fellowship opportunities help to equip the people of this parish for the mission we share. And from that place of strength and encouragement the people of Immanuel on the Green move to care for others in our community and beyond. Inviting new people into this parish family to share in our hopes, dreams and endeavors is a pleasure and delight. As a sign of our welcome, the church is open every day from 9 to 5 for prayer and meditation. We invite you to come and experience the prayerful atmosphere of our beautiful and serene church building which has been hallowed by the prayers of the faithful and the searching for over 330 years.

We are honored by your visit to this site. Please know that you are always welcome at Immanuel. No matter where you are on your spiritual journey, we invite you to consider this community of faith!

In Christ’s peace,

(Fr.) Chris Keene

The Reverend Christopher Paul Keene
29th Rector
