Tending the Vine

consists of St. Paul’s Episcopal Church, Lancaster, The Gathering Place at St. Mark’s, Groveton, and St. Timothy’s Chapel, Lost Nation. To tend the vine means to love God, love neighbour, save the world through radical hospitality and by being good stewards of this, our island home. While we gather on Sunday mornings for traditional liturgy where we hear the Word of God and celebrate Communion at God’s Holy Table where all are welcome as God calls, to be refreshed and renewed, we go out the doors and into the streets to meet God’s children right where they are at as we unveil the Kingdom of God to those in our midst.

Services

Services take place at 10am on Sunday Mornings at St. Paul’s church, 113 Main St., Lancaster, NH. Following the service there is Regroup and Reboot, all are welcome to join. Get Directions

St. Tim’s

St. Timothy’s Chapel was built by the families of “Lost Nation” on the outskirts of Lancaster and completed in 1893. It remains a simple country church today, with no modern conveniences.

In addition to weddings and baptisms, St. Timothy’s is host to a few seasonal services.

  • July: Evening Prayer followed by strawberries and ice cream

  • Fall: Harvest Festival

  • December:  Lessons and Carols

The Gathering Place

The Gathering Place at St. Mark’s in Groveton, NH is a converted chapel which we plan to host alternative gathering opportunities at. Sign up for our newsletter to get updates as this new project unfolds!
