St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church - Church of the Transfiguration
Seeking, Celebrating, Serving … Together
St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church in Lincoln Park, and Church of the Transfiguration in Montville/Towaco, are engaged in an innovative model for parish development and community outreach. Our Episcopal churches, about three miles apart, once served our respective local communities almost exclusively. But today we share what, in effect, is one larger community. So, rather than compete, or duplicate our efforts, we have joined together in a ‘shared ministry’ project endorsed by the Episcopal Diocese of Newark. Both parishes are maintaining their facilities, including their nursery schools, and are seeking ways to strengthen their current programs while exploring new ways to share their strengths and resources. Perhaps the most obvious expression of this sharing at the moment is our shared Rector, the Reverend Dr. David Cabush, and our Music Director, Fran Morton.
Mission Statement
Live and witness to the saving Love of Jesus Christ, to God’s Grace in our lives, for our congregation, our community, and the world, especially remembering to appreciate the Episcopal Tradition of worship and to be intentionally inclusive of all people. | To all who are young and need counsel; to all who are strong and want a task; to all who are weary and need rest; to all who are lonely and want companionship; to all who mourn and need comfort; to all who are sinful and need a Savior - to whosoever will, this church opens wide its doors in the name of Christ our Lord and says WELCOME !
