You can also "pray the labyrinth." Open to the public,
the Santa Rosa Labyrinth at St. Jude's is a wonderful way to pray and meditate while walking the hand-laid brick path under our two majestic pecan trees. Enter the labyrinth with a prayer and as you journey to the center feel the Spirit of God surround you. At the center, thank God for walking in prayer with you; as you exit, meditate on God's love for you and for all Creation.

Tearing Down Walls, Building Up Hope!

St Jude's is an inclusive, embracing community of faith where we celebrate the individual, because we are a group of people from different backgrounds and traditions with a shared desire to bring transformation, healing, acceptance and inclusivity to the word "church."

Christ-Centered 

We are a Christian community committed to sharing the love and teachings of Jesus with all people.

Spirit-Led

We are a church dedicated to providing a spiritual home for all people, including those who may find themselves on the margins of religious society.

Our mission is to reach out to those people struggling for acceptance, equality, and justice in the world - and in our own communities. We welcome all people.

So no matter who you are we ask that you come just as you are.

God's Hands Extended

We take seriously the holiness of every individual we encounter, whether at church or in the community.

Come and share in God's love. Come and enjoy a safe, uplifting and loving environment. Come be a part of a ministry focused on helping others.

Make yourself at home. Take a look around our site. Give us a call or drop us an e-mail if you have any questions. We'd love to hear from you and we'd love to meet you! Check out our service times and join us this week! You have a standing invitation to St Jude's MCC!

What is MCC?

The Universal Fellowship of Metropolitan Community Churches (MCC) is one of the world’s emerging churches, prophetically proclaiming a spirituality that is liberating and sufficiently profound to address the issues of our chaotic and complicated world. We live out our belief that in the margins we are blessed and we are offering multiple ways for people to access our message of liberation and inclusion.
