Downtown church launches noon-hour service

Sudbury’s Church of the Epiphany will start holding shorter noon-time services beginning Sept. 3, during the week.

Lasting less than 30 minutes, these brief services of Holy Communion are specially designed to meet the lunch-break schedules of most downtown employees. Services will be held on Wednesdays and Thursdays, starting at 12:15 p.m.

“In a world where headlines portray anxiety and crisis, these brief services are an opportunity for worship, reflection, rest and recharging,” the Anglican church said in a release.
