What We Believe

The Episcopal Church's Book of Common Prayer is more than a worship book. It outlines the standards and rituals of the Episcopal Church and what we believe. For instance, if you'd like to find the Episcopal Church's belief on the topic of Baptism, you would look at our Baptismal Service. The same follows true with Marriage, Ordination, and Prayer. We invite you to explore the Book of Common Prayer to learn the different belief principles of our church.

For a shorter statement of faith, explore An Outline of Faith: Concerning the Catechism, an outline that all confirmed Episcopalians study and reflect on.
