What's God up to at St. Philip's, Harrodsburg?
God is up to welcome at St. Philip's, Harrodsburg. This is vividly shown in the faces of visitors who experience and comment on the warm, welcoming spirit at our parish. Visitors who then take the time to ask the question: What is the Episcopal Church? and on worshiping their way into the answer to that question, stay and become members. Our congregation has grown steadily over the past few years; these new voices from a range of faith backgrounds mix with longer term members to enrich and deepen our community.

God is up to getting to know one another. This happens in a wide range of ways: over coffee in the parish office on a weekday morning. One person stops by to ask a question: pretty soon it's standing room only as others drop by to chat and share fellowship. It happens over a meal shared at the Fudge Company (a historic drugstore on Main Street, Harrodsburg, now a restaurant), where members from St. Philip's and other area churches get together weekly for meals and shared discussion of what's going on at your church?
