We are happy to welcome you again into our sanctuary. We have been trying to keep everything as close to our usual experience while the COVID-19 restrictions kept us away, offering Zoom.com services at the usual hours in the week. Now that the governor has lifted the ban on church services, and our College of Bishops followed suit, we are back in church, with a few easy provisions to insure our experience of worship in the Presence of Christ and each other, in reasonable safety.

One way in, one way out: We enter the glass doors and at service end, we exit through the tower, meeting on the sidewalk to visit and socialize, without coffee and refreshments for now.

Social space: We sit in every other pew, in family groups, and offer face masks, which are your option to use.

Communion: We are currently offering the Host alone, which we know is a whole Sacrament, given to family groups in the center of the rail.

Bible Studies and Sunday School: For the present, as these smaller, intimate groups present challenges, they are postponed.

Zoom and YouTube: We continue to offer anyone who cannot attend the ability to join via Zoom.com our live transmission, and afterward, the same service posted for view on YouTube. Zoom programming is by invitation - contact the church at augustine.chico@gmail.com. YouTube services are all posted at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4g2paC6se8uHmE7SbQXFqg?view_as=subscriber.

ABOUT US

We are an Anglican Church with a timeless message and traditional
worship exclusively using the 1928 Book of Common Prayer and the King
James and the Coverdale Bibles. Our membership in the
Anglican Province of Christ the King, ensures us with full Apostolic orders, the comfort of the Holy Sacraments, the authority of Holy Scriptures, and a nationwide body of enthusiastic believers under Archbishop Blair Schultz and Bishop Donald Ashman, bishop ordinary of the Diocese of the Western States.

Bishop Peter F. Hansen, Rector of St. Augustine's and Coadjutor Bishop of this Diocese, leads worship, instruction, and Bible studies. Deacon Brian Faith assists, visits, and instructs the young.

Children are urged to attend Children's Ministry at 9:00 a.m., then to sit with their families during worship, receive a blessing at the rail or, if confirmed, partake of Communion. For the very young, baby-sitting is provided in our nursery.

If you have a question of any kind, don’t hesitate to ask. God does not want us to check our brains at the door to His House, but would rather have our minds converted along with our hearts.
