The Ecumenical Service is sponsored by all four houses of worship in Eagles Mere - the Presbyterian, Community, Catholic and Episcopalian churches - in an effort to combine the town's congregations once a year in a single, unifying service. Approximately 250 participants gathered on the village green were joined in readings and song led by community leaders and heard Bishop Baxter's sermon.
