Church of the Mediator Micanopy, Florida

Welcome

The Church of the Mediator welcomes you to Micanopy!

We are celebrating the sesquicentennial (150th) anniversary of our church building. Originally built for the Presbyterians around 1874 it continues to host church services, concerts and community events.

Movie night returns on December 14, 2024, weather permitting.

Our 2024/2025 concert series has started. The second Sunday of December, Pastime with Good Companye will present their Renaissance/Early music Christmas/Advent program. The concert starts 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 has purchased a Viscount Cantorum Duo. We welcome any contributions toward paying for it. Checks marked “organ” can be sent to the address below.

On Thursday evening as announced in the event page, join us for a time of Soaking Prayer. It is time spent in personal prayer without distractions. See the blog page 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:

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.
