Welcome back Open House Sep. 26 at 5 pm
At Canterbury House we gather for worship and a meal each Sunday evening at 5 pm. Our first gathering for the fall quarter of 2021 will be held Sep. 26. The house will be open starting at 4 pm for anyone who would like to drop by. We'll have snacks, drinks, and games. Evening Prayer will begin at 5 pm with dinner following. We hope you can make it. We'd love to meet you!
Free Conversations About Anything!At Canterbury House we have lots of great events and programs. But we also just like to hang out. We are so excited to be able to open the house once again and look forward to hosting you. Come by when the house is open to enjoy some good conversation, catch up on your studies, meet a friend, or just grab a warm cookie and some coffee. Check back here for the hours the house will be open each week during the fall quarter.

Weekly Book DiscussionAt Canterbury House we love to read books about faith and spirituality and discuss them together as a community. For the spring quarter of 2021, we read The Church Cracked Open by Stephanie Spellers, in which "the author explores the American story and the Episcopal story in order to find out how communities steeped in racism, establishment, and privilege can at last fall in love with Jesus, walk humbly with the most vulnerable and embody beloved community in our own broken but beautiful way." Watch here for information about book discussion for Fall 2021.
