St. Elizabeth’s has been an Episcopal Mission since the late 1950s and worshiping in our current locations since the 1970s. Organized and run by a few local families, the church has lived through many changes in the town of Brighton.

As a Diocesan Mission congregation, St. Elizabeth's is led by a Bishop's Committee instead of a Vestry. Monthly meetings are open to all. We appreciate everyone’s voice and interests.
