Our Staff consists of very dedicated parishioners: Our rector is The Reverend Timothy A. Boggs and our Associate Rector is The Reverend Holly C. Hoffmann, our parish administrator is Karen Tucker and we have just called a new Music Director, Joel Pierce.
St. Alban's has been stimulated by a year-long, parish-wide effort called “Enriching our Worship”. We have, through workshops, retreats, reflections, prayer and gatherings of all sorts studied and meditated upon what is powerful in our worship experience at all three Sunday services, while asking ourselves what refinements and enhancements we could create to better celebrate God's love and serve the needs of the people for prayer, communion and growth. We have re-discovered the centrality of our worship and identified a number of improvements that will be forthcoming, including a likely new pipe organ and children's choir.
It feels as if we are on the verge of turning a new corner in our corporate life and it will be more joyous, loving and committed to God.
Thanks be to God!
