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.
- Brett and Elizabeth Wheeler
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
Your Glory is to Pray
Father Justin
What makes us uniquely human in an age where artificial intelligence can replicate many of our intellectual capacities. The story of Abraham and Sarah in Genesis shoes us that our true identity is not rooted in our intelligence or knowledge, but in our personal relationship with God: the fact that God has chosen us to love. The narrative of God's promise to Abraham and Sarah, culminating in that intimate dinner scene where Sarah laughs at the impossible promise of a child, reveals something essential: we are chosen, specially loved, and invited into covenant relationship with the Creator. While AI can now master vast amounts of theological knowledge, organize ideas, and even synthesize sophisticated arguments, it cannot pray. It cannot enter into the face-to-face, across-the-table conversation with God that defines our humanity. Our glory has always been our capacity for prayer, for relationship, for being God's chosen people who declare His praises.
FOR BETTER, FOR VERSE PODCAST
The Band Plays On
Fr. J & Dr. J
This episode explores the rich narratives of First and Second Kings, highlighting the lives of key figures like David, Solomon, Elijah, and Elisha. It emphasizes that what God wants most with humankind is a relationship, one which at this point in the Biblical story is only ever realized by individuals like King David and the prophets Elijah and Elisha, but which, in time and by God's grace, will be enjoyed by every human in all time. The band plays on until God has brought this to pass, and the hope of God's salvation continuing across generations.
