Whether you are here as a guest, have come for a visit or are looking to stay, we invite you to spend time with us. We believe committing to engagement with one another is deeply authentic and reflects the very nature of what it means to be a living, growing faith community. We invite you to join us for a reason, a season or a lifetime as we Worship, Connect, Pray and Give. As an inclusive Episcopal church on Shea Boulevard, we welcome all to experience God’s love in a supportive place of timeless worship, authentic connection, and lifelong joy.

Celebration of the Mass: Our Weekly Episcopal Services
We believe how we pray shapes what we believe. At Saint Anthony on the Desert, we gather as a faith community to celebrate the Holy Eucharist—also known as Holy Communion, the Great Thanksgiving, or the Mass—multiple times each week. Whether you’re new to the Episcopal Church or have been worshipping for years, you are welcome here.

Respecting the Dignity of Every Person
As a parish church in the Episcopal Diocese of Arizona, we acknowledge and pay respect to the Akimel O’odham, Xalychidom Piipaash (Hah-lih-chee-dom Pee-POSH) and Yavapai-Apache as the original people of the land and their role as custodians of this land given to them by our one and only Creator God. We commit ourselves to actively work alongside Indigenous people for reconciliation and justice as we live into our Baptismal Covenant and respect the dignity of every person.
