St. Mary’s of the Incarnation is a joyful welcoming Christian community located in Metchosin B.C. We are on Metchosin Rd. which is a 20 minute drive from downtown Victoria – right beside Witty’s Lagoon.

We are rooted in the Charismatic and Evangelical wing of the Anglican Church although our church family is made up of people from all walks of life and backgrounds. Our community is made up young children, the elderly, and everything in between!

We are served by two pastors; The Rev. Sharon Hayton is the rector and the Rev. Andrew Hewlett is associate Priest/Pastor. Nevertheless, we have always had a strong sense that every person is called to ministry in the body of Christ. Because of this, we have quite a range of exciting ministries that all, some way, witness to the love of God known to us in Jesus Christ.

On Sunday mornings some of us gather at 8:30 a.m. for traditional worship based on the Book of Common Prayer and the use of traditional hymns. Others of us meet at 10:15 a.m. for contemporary Praise and Holy Communion. At this service we honour our liturgical tradition within the context of contemporary music led by our praise band/ team. At this service we also have special ministry for young children and teens. At all our services we seek to be open to the leading of the Holy Spirit so that God’s name would truly be praised.

We are also a teaching community with a love for the Holy Scriptures – the Bible.
Though we welcome a diversity of thought and conviction our leadership is convinced that the Scriptures are foundational for our life and witness. For that reason, whether in sermons, home groups, or Alpha Courses, we encourage all people to prayerfully study the Bible in order to discover that it truly is God’s word written.

Of course, true knowledge of a community must come through experience. Please stop by and pay us a visit. We won’t pressure you to become a member. However, do ask questions – we enjoy telling others about our church family. Feel free to call us at (250) 474-4119 or email us. We’d love to tell you more.
