OUR MISSION

To live for God, to serve Christ
To be moved by the Holy Spirit,
And to spread the Good News by our actions
Serving the larger community

The Episcopal Church of the Messiah has lived and continues to live for God. We proclaim Jesus as "the Messiah, the Son of the Living God." ( Matthew 16:16)  in our community and world.

We serve Christ by helping our neighbors at GCAM (Gonzales Christian Assistance Ministry).  Every weekday we offer food and other help to Gonzales County.  For almost 30 years, GCAM has helped provide meals for anyone who is in need. We also help Meals on Wheels by assisting with their fuel cost and adding extra fresh food to their deliveries.  We also support AA and Boy Scouts by providing space and other kinds of support.

Messiah is 175 years old, but the Holy Spirit continues to help us spread the Good News!  Come join us!

We have carefully and respectfully refurbished the church building and the other buildings on our campus.  We have a beautiful Columbarium surrounded by a garden of native flowers and greenery.  It is open for prayer to all.
