St. Alfred's Episcopal Church

About this church

St. Alfred's Episcopal Church offers Rite I Holy Eucharist at 5 p.m. Saturday and Rite II Holy Eucharist at 10 a.m. Sunday at 1601 Curlew Road in Palm Harbor. The Sunday service is also streamed online. A Thursday Rite II Eucharist with healing prayer meets at noon, and coffee hour follows Sunday worship around 11:15. The distinction between Rite I and Rite II gives visitors a useful choice: Saturday uses older, more traditional language, while Sunday uses contemporary-language liturgy with choir and music.

The parish's welcome is summarized as “All Welcome. All Loved. No Exceptions.” Worship is rooted in Anglican prayer and sacrament, with the Eucharist at the center. Parishioners serve as acolytes, readers, chalice bearers, ushers, altar-guild members, musicians, and intercessors, so the liturgy visibly includes lay leadership. Music ranges from plainsong and historic choral works to modern compositions, with a parish choir, handbells, recorders, strings, and guest instrumentalists contributing through the church year. A first-time visitor can choose the quieter Saturday liturgy or the fuller Sunday service and coffee hour; people seeking prayer for healing have a dedicated Thursday option. Seasonal choral services should be confirmed through the current bulletin.
