St. Alban's is a welcoming faith community
in the heart of Warren County.
Come to the
country... to worship at St. Alban's Church.
Come to the country... to be a apart of the St. Alban's community.
Our church is located in a country setting in the tiny community of Bovina, Mississippi. We are seven
miles east of Vicksburg. As your car turns off the paved road and onto the slag drive, you approach St.
Alban's Church on a circular drive way that is surrounded by Live Oaks and Cedar Trees.
The churchyard dates to pre-Civil War days. Spanish moss
hangs from the limbs of the trees. A cemetery spills out across the lawn. Our country setting offers a
serene atmosphere that is conductive to abiding in God's presence.
Our community practices holy hospitality. We rely on one of Saint Benedict's Rules of Life as our
standard: "Let all who enter here be welcomed as Christ." We are a community that seeks to serve Christ
in each other and everyone we encounter.
The interior of the church reflects the feel of the country
with simple stained glass windows and an altar crafted from oak.
A sense of the Holy permeates the landscape and the inscape.
The celebration of the Holy Eucharist on Sunday mornings and Wednesday evenings is the starting point
to learn more about the Episcopal Church. Each Eucharist is includes Old and New Testament readings,
prayers, the offering of peace to each other, and Holy Communion. The members of St. Alban's Church are
nourished by our communal worship and our participation in the sacraments. We feast on the Bread of Life
and the Cup Salvation each time we come together for the Holy Eucharist.
Come to the country... to get to know us.
We want to get to know you!
