Moving into the St. Augustine Chapel at Canterbury...

With an adapted litany we made an official move into the chapel at Canterbury, with procession, prayers and singing. It was a week of great preparation with: media and audio-visual installations; a hand crafted altar rail installed and designed lovingly by Incarnation members Larry and Linda Varney and Tom Bates; cleaning; setting up chairs; moving wares from RTS and more. I have to admit it felt like a homecoming and we squeezed 130+ people into the space as we worshiped and shared in the ministry of the Word and Sacraments. These will be interesting days as we figure out different aspects of our being at Canterbury (i.e. maneuvering around the campus, parking, Christian Formation classes, Children's Chapel, nursery and more.) Bear with us as we try our best to understand how to be a congregation functioning on the Canterbury property. More pictures from our special day are available on our website (Thanks Canon Bennett and Sr. Warden Jeff for clicking the cameras) CLICK HERE

Incarnation at Canterbury...

There is a great deal required to keep Canterbury going. Many projects to take on in terms of cleaning -up the grounds, landscaping, painting, and much more. If you are interested in taking on something, taking care of a specific area or task please let Fr. Jon know... jon@incarnationoviedo.com

Parking and Access: I am asking all those who are able to walk to the chapel, to park in the main parking lot near the Canterbury entrance. This will make for a short walk to the chapel through the campus. If you have mobility issues you are welcome to drive the gravel / dirt road around the perimeter of the Canterbury Campus to get to the chapel. You can check out a MAP OF CANTERBURY on the website CLICK HERE

Nursery: We are establishing our own nursery and it will be located in the Durham Room located in the in the breezeway of the 2 story lodging building on the way to the chapel. This is a living room space that has a kitchenette and bathroom and will serve us well in the short term. We have a pager system we will employ to give to parents when they drop off and check-in their child. For more information contact Shelly Buchan.
