St. Margaretโs?
St. Margaretโs and The Episcopal Church
The Episcopal Church sits at a unique crossroads between Roman Catholicism and Protestantism, embracing aspects of both traditions. It values both scripture and tradition, while also emphasizing reason as an important tool for understanding and interpreting faith. This balance allows for a flexible, thoughtful approach to theology, making it welcoming to a wide range of perspectives.
