Episcopal Church of the Advent

About this church

Episcopal Church of the Advent in Louisville's Highlands neighborhood holds two Sunday services of Holy Eucharist. The 8:30 a.m. service is a quieter early option, while the 10:30 a.m. service is choral, with a choir and pipe organ. The parish has served the area since 1874 and describes itself as rooted in the Episcopal Church tradition, meeting at 901 Baxter Avenue.

Children are welcome to stay in worship the whole time. During the 10:30 a.m. service, Children's Worship for ages five through fifth grade leaves for the Upper Hall using The Episcopal Children's Curriculum, then rejoins families at the Peace for Communion. Children's Worship pauses in summer, between Memorial Day and Labor Day. A nursery on the second floor is open year-round for ages zero to four during the 10:30 a.m. service. Adult Formation, spiritual direction, baptism and confirmation preparation, and membership information are listed on the site. The parish also runs a food pantry that includes pet food. Visitors can find directions and parking details on the church website, and times should be confirmed there before a first visit.
