St.
Adian'sHistory
St. Aidan's was born out
of the merger of two north side churches in 1973. The merger of St.
Thomas' predominantly black church and St. Mark's predominantly white
church was an experiment many thought would fail. But it
didn't. It was the first church of the mainline Christian traditions
to act intentionally to integrate the Sunday morning worship. 25
years, later, St. Aidan's remains unique in its intentional racial and
ethnic diversity.
The Church's predominant
makeup is African and European peoples, yet many of our members have
American Indian heritages as well. We are committed to the
celebration of our diversity in our music, our worship and the many ways
we share community life together.
