About Our Church
Walk With Us
Wherever you are on your faith journey, you are welcome at St. Benedict. May you feel the presence of the Holy Spirit in this place. Here, you have found a diverse and engaged faith community that welcomes all kinds of people and families.
​
We were named after St. Benedict of Nursia, who wrote a “rule of life” for monks and nuns that placed hospitality, community, and prayer at the center of a holy life. We seek to practice those same values in this place.
​
St. Benedict lists itself on GayChurch.org as a church that welcomes and affirms LGBTQ+ individuals and their families.
Jesus accepts all at
His table; So do we.
