Baptism

Baptism marks our adoption into the Body of Christ. We celebrate Baptism during the Sunday Eucharist services. Baptism is offered several times throughout the year on the Baptism of Jesus in early January; at the Easter Vigil and Easter Sunday; on Pentecost in May/June and on All Saint's Day in November. We also offer Baptism in February, July and September. Adults are often baptized at the Great Vigil of Easter (the evening before Easter).

If you are interested in baptism for yourself or your child, please complete the following registration application.

Confirmation & Reception

Confirmation is offered for adults (16 and older) who were baptized as infants to make a mature declaration of faith before the Bishop of the Diocese. For adults who were confirmed in another church, reception into the Episcopal Church is marked liturgically by making a declaration before the Bishop. In both cases, St. Columba's offers an annual preparation class. High school stu…

Weddings

In Christian marriage, partners enter into a life-long union, make their vows before God and their Christian community, and receive the grace and blessing of God to help them fulfill their vows. At St. Columba’s, we take marriage seriously and understand that loving and committed relationships are a gift from God. We welcome and celebrate the weddings of same-sex and opposite-sex…

Funerals and Memorial Services

The occasion of a funeral or memorial service provides an opportunity for friends and family to gather and give thanks for a life and commend their loved one to the eternal love of God. One of the most moving services of the church is the Burial of the Dead (found in The Book of Common Prayer, p. 491-505). At a funeral service, the body or cremated remains are present; a memorial…

The opposite of faith is not doubt, but certainty. ~ Anne Lamott

Joining a church doesn’t mean you don’t have big questions or doubts. Deciding to be part of a loving community of faith means you’re open to exploring and wrestling with those big questions and doubts. Most people here did not grow up in The Episcopal Church. Some have never been a member of any church. Many have a background in a different church or faith tradition. At St. Columba’s, there will be many opportunities to learn, ask questions, and get to know other pilgrims along the way. Our deepest hope is that everyone who steps through our doors knows they belong here.

A pledge is a promise - a promise to give a certain amount over the course of the following year. We don’t expect you to fulfill your pledge in one lump gift. Many find they can give more when pledging and then giving incrementally over the course of the year.

Pledging before the start of each calendar year is critical for clergy and staff to develop an annual budget and plan to serve you and our wider community.

Why Give? God asks us to share our time, talent and treasure. A life of generosity is at the root of Christianity. The Bible encourages the tithe – or 10% of your annual income – and we encourage you to think about what a meaningful gift would be for you.

When you give to St. Columba’s you help fund our ministry in the community, our worship, and the staff that supports our community as we strive to Live God’s Love.

Our mission is funded by you – St. Columbans and other supporters.

Give Now

St. Columba’s is grateful for your generosity. We accepts gifts in the form of cash, checks, appreciated stocks, Charitable IRA Rollovers, Donor Advised Gifts, and matching gifts. If you would like to include us in your end-of-life charitable gift plans, we accept bequests, life income gifts, and gifts of special assets (real estate, closely held stock, life insurance).
