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!
- Cleve Callison
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
We Are Ripe for Harvest
Rev. Phoebe
This sermon centers on Jesus' encounter with the Samaritan woman at the well, revealing a God who refuses to give up on humanity despite our brokenness and division. Rev. Phoebe invites us to see Jesus as someone operating from a future vision of the Kingdom of God—where barriers of gender, ethnicity, and religious tradition simply don't exist. Like a time traveler awkwardly out of sync with cultural norms, Jesus scandalously breaks social custom by speaking with the woman and sharing water across religious divide. The message is profoundly hopeful: God believed we were ready for transformation 2,000 years ago amid tribal and religious division, and God believes in humanity still today. During this Lenten season of lengthening light, we're challenged to let go of existential dread and doom-scrolling despair, and instead embrace the radical hope that God still sees humanity as ready for radical transformation. By the power of the resurrection, Jesus continues to work through us today just as he did 2000 years ago.
