Holy Trinity Edmonds is an Anglican community in Edmonds, Washington.

We opened our doors for worship services in the Fall of 2014.  We are unique in the sense that we partnered with a a local congregation that is not Anglican but is focused on building the Kingdom of God in our city and they helped us to start HTE.  We are working under the Anglican Church of North America (ACNA), and began the church under the authority of Bishop Todd Hunter and the Diocese of Churches for the Sake of Others (C4SO).  Our Pastor, Ryan Brotherton, was ordained an Anglican Priest in January 2015. After getting settled as a church plant and growing the foundations that will help us in the future we were received into our local diocese, Cascadia, under the authority of Bishop Kevin Allen in September of 2015. In the Summer of 2017 we moved from a shared worship space at North Sound Church to our current location at 657 Daley St. in Edmonds.

Holy Trinity Edmonds – is Anglican at its roots. Our liturgy (order and expression of worship) offers a unique blend of ancient and future that captures the imagination, and we actively draw from the best of our ancient faith in ways designed to reach today’s culture with the Gospel.

Anglican Christianity is – Biblical…centered on a commitment to the Bible as God’s Word to us, the truth that guides our lives. Unified…connected with Christians the world over for 2000 years that believe in salvation through Christ alone. In this way, Anglicanism is part of a global Christian faith, or, as expressed in the Nicene Creed: “the one holy catholic and apostolic church.” Historic…rooted in the earliest Christian church and upholds the teaching, promises and worship of Jesus, His apostles and the “priesthood of all believers.” (I Peter 2:9, NIV)

In visiting us at Holy Trinity Edmonds you can expect to find all types of folks, young and old. People from various backgrounds and upbringings and in different places on their own journey toward Jesus. But you will also find a people who are sincerely following and growing in relationship with Jesus, individually and together as the body of Christ.

We understand that sometimes we need to slow down and take a step out of our busy and frantic lives. In doing so we are often able to better see what it is God is doing and hear what it is He is saying. We love to be together while we worship God, as His body, and we believe in participating together in the worship of God; Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We are reverent before God when we worship together and believe strongly that what takes place during the worship service is sacred and meaningful.

We enjoy being in the presence of the Living Triune God and we anticipate the Holy Spirit speaking and working in our lives. We do so however within the order of the Liturgy (order and expression of worship) and what we believe to be the practices of the historic Church that have been handed down to us.

We do our best to be simultaneously rooted and relevant, ancient and modern, traditional and innovative.

We desire to see Holy Trinity Edmonds grow up as a people who are committed to being humble and vulnerable with God, ourselves, and each other. We envision a community of people where kind honesty is valued and practiced. Humility, vulnerability, and telling the kind truth are the foundational pieces of the culture we are seeking to develop together. We hope that even when things get messy and people disagree with one another, we can be a group of folks who are united in Christ and find our unity and common bond in Him by the power of the Holy Spirit. We seek to be growing in these things for the sake of the Gospel of Jesus, for the glory of God, for the abundance of life, and for the sake of others. From this kind of culture we hope to live out our values.

OUR VALUES

We slow down and reflect as we pay attention to God, ourselves, and others. Reflection is not just an act but a way of being.

As we reflect we ask the Holy Spirit to help us recognize where and how God is already at work in and around us. In our recognition we seek to join our lives with Christ in living more fully the abundant life he came to give.

As we join in the work that God is doing we find ourselves revitalized by the power of the Holy Spirit as we participate in the goodness of God and his Kingdom.
