Welcome to the Episcopal Church of the Messiah!
We are a vibrant and intentionally inclusive community in the heart of Myrtle Beach
welcoming residents and visitors!
FAQ's
What is Messiah's worship style?
We follow the Book of Common Prayer and often use the Rite II Service which is traditional in style. Many of our hymns are from the Hymnal but we like to mix it up too! Holy Communion is offered every Sunday.
What about children?
Children are always welcome! We offer a Children's Program in our Upper Room where they hear Bible stories, do arts and crafts, and enjoy snacks together. The children come back down to worship to join their families for Communion.
Who is welcome to receive communion?
In the Episcopal Church, all are welcome to receive communion at the Lord’s Table. This includes everyone from those searching for faith to those who are cradle Episcopalians and everyone in between.
If you are not familar with an Episcopal service, feel free to introduce yourself to a person sitting near you and ask them to help you follow along.
What should I wear?
God gives us so much; we can praise him by wearing our best. And, God knows our hearts which is what counts. Whichever is your perspective, and however you are comfortable is how you should dress. We welcome all!
As a beach community, we like to follow in Jesus' footsteps by wearing sandals!
How do I get to know some people in the church?
A great way to get to know us is to join us after worship in the Upper Room for coffee and nibbles. We'd love to get to know you, share about ourselves, and brag on our church!
Or getting involved is another way to meet people - check out these opportunities!
What if I have a question about theology? or faith? or what Episcopalians believe? Who do I ask?
You're in luck! I know a guy who loves to discuss theology, faith & the Episcopal Church! Simply send Father John an email.
The Episcopal Diocese of South Carolina has purchased a three-acre parcel of land for us on March 17, 2025 where we will build a new church home! When you drive by, say a prayer.

Did you know that in Myrtle Beach one in every four children face hunger? Last year Community Kitchen fed 131,055 children through their Children’s Hunger Initiative Program (CHIP). Let’s help them stock up for the school year when they provide nutritious after school snacks and teen dinner meals. Please bring the following to the church during the month of August:
- Juice Boxes
- Individual Serving Fruit cups
- Individual Serving Pudding/Jell O
- Healthy Snack Bars Granola/Cereal
and if you spend yourselves in behalf of the hungry and satisfy the needs of the oppressed, then your light will rise in the darkness, and your night will become like the noonday.
Isaiah 58:10 (NIV)
