Who We Are The Episcopal Church of the Nativity, located in Greenwood, Mississippi, is a deeply committed parish with members bringing a wide variety of personal histories, interests and talents, all searching for a closer relationship to Jesus Christ and the people in our community. We cherish our long history and look forward to living out the principles of our Anglican heritage. Nativity is an active, eclectic parish representative of our deep Delta roots. Our membership is a diverse group of backgrounds and professions. We are cradle Episcopalians and lifelong members of Nativity, yet many of us found Nativity on our spiritual journey. We are newlyweds, young families, empty-nesters, recent retirees, and octogenarians. We are physicians and medical professionals, educators and coaches, attorneys and judges, farmers, chefs, authors, realtors, bankers, business professionals of all types, civil servants, local leaders, and all in between. Our individual interests are as wide ranging as our backgrounds, and we count among us historians, hunters, birders, gardeners, flower arrangers, musicians, pilots, softball players, runners, walkers, motorcyclists, and fishermen. Our parishioners embrace the opportunities lay and community leadership present. Nativity maintains a leadership presence at the Diocesan level, with its members recently serving on the Executive and Standing Committees of the Diocese. Nativity is a part of the worldwide Anglican community, the Episcopal Church USA, and the Diocese of Mississippi. Above all else, Nativity is a place where all are welcome to worship, love, belong, grow, and serve.
