St. Hugh of Lincoln Episcopal Church

Share a story

At St. Hugh, our mission is simple: To Know Jesus, To Glorify Jesus, To Share Jesus. We strive to KNOW Jesus through thoughtful education and study for all ages. We GLORIFY Jesus with meaningful worship. We SHARE Jesus and believe that everyone can find a spiritual home in the Episcopal Church.

We, the people of St. Hugh’s parish, place a high value on cultivating our spiritual growth. An overwhelming majority of our members believe that their faith is central to their lives. St. Hugh nurtures this spiritual vitality and provides a space for feeling God’s presence.

St. Hugh has evolved into a “regional”, rather than a community-based, church, with one-third of our members living 10 or more miles away.

We are a mix of new and long-time members. Almost half of the congregants have been members for over 15 years, but newcomers are readily welcomed, and many who have come to visit decide to stay and make St. Hugh their home parish.

Bible study and Christian education are valued at St. Hugh, as is meaningful worship and opportunities for fellowship. We hope you’ll come visit and enjoy the peace and fellowship we all value!
