St. Nicholas' Episcopal Church

About this church

St. Nicholas Episcopal Church is a Scarborough parish whose worship is informal, sincere, structured, relaxed, and participatory. The congregation uses the Book of Common Prayer and other Episcopal resources while making room for lay leadership; during its priest search, members lead Morning Prayer about once each month. Its mission connects faith with hunger relief, peace, social justice, welcome for immigrants and asylum seekers, and care for a community garden.

Sunday worship begins at 9:30 a.m. both in the sanctuary and on Zoom; visitors can request the meeting link by email. Music is woven into worship and sometimes includes guest musicians from the wider community. The sanctuary, gathering space, and restrooms are wheelchair accessible, and plentiful parking is close to the entrance. Bulletins are emailed in advance, while Zoom remains live rather than a later recording. The church’s public pages do not describe a nursery, separate children’s class, youth group, check-in or pickup, volunteer screening, dress expectations, service length, Communion frequency, or Communion eligibility for visitors. Because Morning Prayer replaces the Eucharistic pattern roughly monthly and the congregation is in a clergy transition, visitors who specifically want Communion should check the week’s bulletin before attending.
