The Church of the Holy Innocents was founded in 1842. The current church was built in 1884, the parish hall in 1916, the education wing which houses our parish dayschool in 1957. The campus also includes the Hughes House, a former rectory that now houses office and conference space and the Cooper House which has been used for various outreach projects.
We hold three Worship services on Sunday. Our 8:00 service is Holy Communion, Rite One. Our 10:30 service is generally Holy Communion Rite Two except during Lent. Our 12:30 service is in Spanish. Fifth Sundays the 10:30 is Rite One Morning prayer. The conregation is broad church tendng torwards low church whilet the rector is High Church tending towards Anglo-Catholicism. So we compromise and do broad church in fancy dress.
Our Weekday services is generally Holy Commuion at 5:30 on Wednesdy.
