Welcome
The Church of the Mediator welcomes you to Micanopy!
Everyone stay safe as Hurricane Milton passes by our area.
This Sunday, October 13, join us at 2:00pm for the first concert in the 2024/2025 Concert Series. Performing this week is the Varmint Family, Old Time Band. Future concerts happen every 2nd Sunday of the month at 2pm. This December we will also have a special concert on the 1st Sunday of the month, also at 2pm.
Join us Sundays for the 11am service (with music before the start of the service). Following the service join us for coffee hour in Ryan Hall (behind the church).
Our church organ ceased working in May 2024. We have been using a Viscount Cantorum Duo in services. The church elected to purchase the organ and has made a down payment. We welcome any contributions toward paying for it. Checks marked “organ” can be sent to the address below.
On the first Thursday evening of the month, from 7pm to 8pm join us for a time of Soaking Prayer. It is time spent in personal prayer without distractions. See the blog page for details. (Note the July meeting will be on July 11th).
Concert series news. Concerts happen every second Sunday of the month at 2pm. Our 2024/2025 series is scheduled to start in October. Check back closer to October for details.
The Church of the Mediator is a congregation of the Diocese of Florida of The Episcopal Church, in communion with the Archbishop of Canterbury.
Mission Statement:
Our vision as an inclusive Christian Church in this community is:
to share God-centered worship
to be a Christ-forgiven people
to serve all our neighbors
while inviting everyone to grow with us in our walk with Christ.
We are located at 501 NE Cholokka Blvd in Micanopy, FL. We are across the street from the Herlong Mansion.
The word “Episcopal” means “having Bishops.” We are part of the Diocese of Florida, served by our Bishop whose cathedral is in Jacksonville. The Episcopal Church in the United States of America is a daughter church of the Church of England. Because of our English heritage, we are often called “Anglicans.” The responsibilities of the Bishop are currently being handled by The Standing Committee until a new bishop is elected.
Our mission board and church officers:
- Priest…Fr. George Holston
- Senior Warden…Jeffrey L. Forbes
- Junior Warden…Jim Sparkman
- Treasurer…Fay Baird
- Member…Bruce Major
