Welcome to Our Worldwide Congregation!

The purpose of Friends of Bruton is to provide a means whereby individuals and families, who may live throughout the United States and indeed around the world, may participate in the preservation and promotion of the unique history and spiritual legacy of Bruton Parish Church in Colonial Williamsburg. Friends of Bruton is open to all who share this vision.

As the successor to the first Anglican Church established in the “New World” at Jamestown, Bruton has continued in the spiritual tradition of those early settlers who landed there in May of 1607.

As a Friend of Bruton, you will receive a variety of benefits, including an electronic edition of our monthly newsletter The Chronicle and periodic e-newsletters especially designed for Our Worldwide Congregation containing articles of interest both historic and spiritual ... read The Bruton Fount Fall 2012, Winter 2012 or Spring 2013 issue. Future benefits may include special events, cultural tours, webinars, music programs, and perhaps opportunities for a trip back to Williamsburg!  We'll even inform you of our annual stewardship campaigns.
 
Because this is a new Bruton outreach program, we have established an opportunity over the next several months for Friends to be designated as Charter Members by making a  donation of $100 or more.  As an expression of our appreciation for helping us inaugurate this new program, we will be delighted to send a signed copy of Bruton Parish Church: An Architectural History by the distinguished historian, Dr. Carl Lounsbury.  Marking the three-hundredth anniversary of this much beloved 18th century landmark, the author analyzes for the first time the fascinating history of this national shrine and active church building we know today.  Checks should be made payable to Bruton Parish Church, with Friends of Bruton in the memo line, and mailed to Bruton Parish Church.
 
It's easy to enroll, just click here and complete the online form.
 
We look forward to welcoming you to Our Worldwide Congregation as a Friend of Bruton.
 
The Rev'd Christopher L. Epperson, Rector
