Our Merciful Savior Episcopal Church

We have gone to OMS for a couple of years now. The English service at 9am is a small but very friendly and faithful crowd. We have felt very welcomed and loved here after getting tired of the showmanship at some churches.
The open arms and inclusiveness has been wonderful. It is great to get to know people who have lived in the neighborhood for 60 to 80 years (seriously). We also appreciate the integrity and commitment of the staff there and the focus on addressing hunger, education, poverty, immigration, and other social justice issues in the city.
The Spanish speaking service is at 11am, with bilingual services at 10am on special Sundays. We have enjoyed the opportunities to connect with the great diversity of people at OMS.

Just a beautiful, very friendly, neighborhood Episcopal Church.
The Sunday Service in English wasn’t very well attended, but those who did attend were really nice and insisted that my mother (visiting from out of town) and I stay for coffee hour afterwards.
I love that they have a food closet here. And, it truly is a food closet. A couple times a week, they are open and those in need of assistance can come in and get what they need by shopping the food closet. In fact, during the church service, we noticed a «shopping list» in the handout for items that the food closet was most in need of. Fantastic! I make an effort to buy a few extra things every week when I go grocery shopping to help out the food bank.
If you live in the Highlands and are doing some Spring cleaning of your pantry, drop your canned/​boxed goods off at Our Merciful Savior! Help out folks in need right here in the neighborhood!
