Ministry Directory | St. Columba's Episcopal Church

A to Z Ministries

In our Episcopal tradition and following the inspiration of St. Columba, all are called to ministry according to the gifts given to them, to carry on Christ's work of reconciliation in the world; and to take their place in the life, worship, and governance of the Church. Here are the many ways in which St. Columbans step into ministry.

Care Ministries

Pastoral care is the very soul of this Christian community. For each of us, there are times in life when we need loving support from others, and times when we can offer it to others. These ministries offer opportunities for both.

Fellowship Ministries

No matter where you are on your journey of faith, you are welcome at St. Columba’s. We invite you to explore all the information you need to visit, connect with and perhaps join in on our abundant parish life ministries.

Inquire & Learn Ministries

With St. Columba as our inspiration, we are curious by nature and ready to explore, seeking out new spiritual knowledge. These St. Columba ministries offers all ages the opportunity to learn and grow from wide range of educational experiences.

Serve Ministries

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.

While our building is closed, our parish community is alive and well connected online. Walk with us during these uncertain times as we encourage spiritual curiosity, celebrate children and youth, and embrace the world in the spirit of God’s justice and love. How can we serve you today?

Let's Stay in Touch!

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

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.

The Iona Society is an honorary society of parishioners through the decades who have chosen to support the life and work of St. Columba’s Episcopal Church through charitable bequests, life income gifts, trusts, and other planned giving arrangements. St. Columba’s has thrived due the generosity of many hundreds of friends over the past century. The preservation of its buildings, its ministry to those within and outside our walls and the success of its programs all depend on such continuing support. Members of the Iona Society play a crucial role in providing for the church’s future through their gifts.
