Emmanuel Episcopal Church

About this church

Emmanuel Episcopal Church is a Franklin congregation seeking to embody the Body of Christ through worship, family and community life, formation, and service. Its traditional Episcopal liturgy draws from the Book of Common Prayer, while hymns may be accompanied by organ, piano, guitar, or violin. Children participate visibly in worship, and age-appropriate learning is woven into the service rather than offered only at a separate hour.

Sunday worship begins at 10:00 a.m. and lasts about one hour. Children ages five through eleven receive a blessing before Scripture, leave for a lesson and craft, and return for Communion and the final hymn. Nursery care for ages four and under can be arranged by contacting the office; it should not be assumed without notice. Off-street parking is in the lot behind the church off Fourth Avenue, and visitors may enter through the kitchen door. Accessible parking is on High Street, with an accessible entrance through the front of the parish hall. Crayons and coloring books are available from the usher for children remaining in worship. The choir sings every other week, so the musical leadership varies even though the service time remains stable.
