Welcome to Holy Innocents!

Holy Innocents is a small Episcopal Church located in Corte Madera in Marin County.  It is  a place where both tradition and innovation are valued.  The heart of our community lies in worship, which takes place at our 9 am Holy Eucharist, and special services such as Evensong.

Holy Innocents was established in 1905 and is located on the historic Old Corte Madera Square. All are welcome to attend services regardless of their faith background.  Whether you know the Episcopal Church well or are brand new to Christianity, you are invited to explore your beliefs with us.

EcoPilgrimage

Sunday, June 16 to Wednesday, June 19

The EcoPilgrimage is a journey of body and spirit, by boat and by foot, from The Bishop's Ranch to the Pacific Ocean. Pilgrims and Ranch Staff will explore the varying ecosystems of Sonoma County, the Russian River and the watersheds the trip bisects. A chaplain will provide spiritual guidance and a naturalist offers ecological background. Meals from the Ranch kitchen will nourish your body while shared music and stories around the fire will form new friendships. Expect to walk or paddle for most of the day, and be prepared to sleep outside or in tents at night. Appropriate for pilgrims age 15 or older when accompanied by a parent. Limited space available. Cost of trip covers food, camping fees and permits, transportation, boat and equipment rental. Contact Andrea Foote with questions andrea@bishopsranch.org
