Welcome to Church of Our Saviour
at Mission Farm!

If you are looking for a church that . . .
• welcomes your mind, not just your wallet
• invites all people, and means it,
• believes that doubt is  not the opposite of faith,
• proclaims a Gospel of love,
• is centered in God, grounded in prayer, affirming of life, and living in hope,
Then come and see . . . .

The church building is open daily for prayer and meditation, and all are welcome.

Hospitality, worship, warmth, and good food are all part of the life at Mission Farm. Visitors, neighbors, and guests are always welcome to join us for worship, retreat, or just to wander over the 170 acres of woods and meadows preserved here.  On this quiet bit of land in the beautiful Sherburne Valley, you will find our Church, Heminway Guest and Retreat House, Mission Farm Bakery, Vicarage (clergy residence) and a stretch of woods and trails that encompasses river and hillside.

We are a small congregation, seeking to live out Jesus' command to love God and our neighbor.  Members are committed to welcoming and including all who come to us, regardless of race, religious background, nationality, differing abilities, or kind of family.

Worship is at the center of our community life, and we strive to keep it open, prayerful, and engaging.

God calls us to lives of justice as well as love, and we try  to embody that justice.  To this end we have committed ourselves to  a few areas of outreach:  
• The Rutland County Women's Network, collecting items for their guests.
• Cristosal, a Vermont based ministry with the Episcopal Church in El Salvador.
• Heminway Guest and Retreat House, offering accommodations for individuals and small groups from the church and community at very affordable rates.

Mission Farm Bakery
Mission Farm baker Tim Owings lives a contemplative life in a log cabin at Mission farm and operates a wholesale bakery. He produces a variety of products sold at local retailers and on the internet (see link below). He also does catering for guests at Heminway House. He may be reached at 802-422-4689.

Tim's products include fruit tarts that may be ordered on the Web through Monastery Greetings. The site also carries his special Easter cookies.

Heminway House, named for the former rector who converted the carriage barn next to the rectory into a house for retreat guests, is located directly across Mission Farm Road from the church. The simple accomodations for up to 16 are available for use by church and non-profit groups.

Location
The Church of Our Saviour is located on Mission Farm Road, a short loop off Route 4, east of the Killington access road and midway between Rutland and Woodstock.  
 
When approaching from Rutland, Mission Farm Road is the first left just after the end of the long, straight stretch known as the Sherburne Flats. From Woodstock, the turn is 0.9 miles past the Route 100 intersection at West Bridgewater and just before the pedestrian overpass at the Killington Skyeship, or gondola.
