What I love about St. Barnabas!
I love the sense of peace and homecoming that I always find at St. Barnabas - a feeling of true sanctuary. But even more important is the way our community embodies family and belonging. What I love best is our mutual determination to be our best for one another.
- Sarah Bleasdale
When we moved here a year and half ago, we knew we wanted to find an Episcopal church and we tried several in the area and we kept coming back to St. Barnabas because it is just so full of spirit and the worship is fantastic. There's a great rector and a lot of activity going on. So, we're hooked!

When I was asked what I loved about Saint Barnabas, I thought, “Well that’s easy.” The music, the people, the liturgy, the music, the sermons, the pastoral leadership, the feeling of family, the music, and the list goes on!

We love the community of St. Barnabas. We have made new friends and deepened existing friendships. Justin's weekly sermons center and uplift us. And we leave each Sunday feeling hopeful. We feel so blessed to be part of such a wonderful and welcoming place.
- Sally and Kirk Bedell
We love coming to St. Barnabas because the people in the church make us feel welcome and included as a part of the community. The music is beautiful, and the sermons are engaging, relevant, and full of encouragement.

I’ve been a part of the weekly service at St. Barnabas for 30 years. My granddaughter Skylar has joined me every week the last 4 years. Sunday mornings rejuvenates my faith in God. The kindness throughout the congregation and staff is a gift from God. All this adds to the ease of living in Peace by the grace of God!
The beauty and tranquillity at St. Barnabas we really enjoy!

LATEST SERMON
Hail Mary. Hey, Nanny!
Father Justin
This powerful reflection on Ephesians invites us into one of the most profound truths of our faith: God's power to turn loss into life. Drawing from Paul's letter to the Ephesians, written during his imprisonment in Rome, we encounter not a problem-solving manual but a sweeping vision of what God has accomplished through Christ. The message is clear and personal—the same resurrection power that raised Jesus from the dead is actively at work in us and those we love. What makes this particularly moving is how it connects to All Saints Day and the communion of saints. We're reminded that death doesn't get the final word over anyone we love. The barrier between the living and the dead is more permeable than we might think. Those who have gone before us aren't lost to us; they're alive with Christ, and we can still speak to them, ask them to pray for us, and feel their love surrounding us.
FOR BETTER, FOR VERSE PODCAST
God of the One and the Many
Fr. J & Dr. J
In this episode, Justin Crisp and Jewelle Bickel explore Luke chapters 14 and 15, discussing more of Jesus' journey to Jerusalem, the true nature of humility, the potential cost of discipleship, and the parables of grace: the parables of the lost sheep, the lost coin, and the prodigal son. They emphasize themes of unconditional love and the irreducible dignity of every individual in God's eyes. The God of the Bible is prodigal too: He spends everything He has (and is) on bringing each and every one of us home.
