“We’re a plucky group, rock solid in our beliefs, our words, and our deeds. We each wear multiple hats and can switch hats when needed. We are about each other…we are family.”

The Episcopal Church of NH comprises 46 congregations from Colebrook to Nashua, Claremont to Portsmouth. We are discovering God's mission in the world and listening to what God calls us to challenge and confront. We do this work in churches & communities, and from mountaintops to the sea.
