Special Services
St. Mary's offers the sacred rites performed in the Episcopal tradition. Children and adults are welcome to receive the rite of baptism during our 10 a.m. service. Individuals who have been baptized in other Christian denominations may be confirmed or received into the Episcopal Church through the administration of these rites by the bishop of the diocese. We hold classes for those desiring confirmation or reception into the Episcopal Church. Please contact the church office (813-251-1660; [email protected]) if you are interested in any of these sacred rites.
