Prayer Shapes Our Beliefs

As part of the Diocese of Utah and the Episcopal Church (USA), we share in the heritage of the world-wide Anglican Communion. We are a community of Christians guided by Scripture, Tradition, and Reason, as we seek to interpret our ancient faith in the modern world. The Episcopal Church has historically been characterized by regularized forms of worship and a generous latitude of theological interpretation. We use the Book of Common Prayer, two-thirds of which is taken from Scripture. In the sacraments, we look for outward and physical signs of inward, spiritual realities. We proclaim the ancient creeds of the church as symbols of our orthodox faith, and our continuity with Christ throughout the ages.
