Who we are

As Rector of this wonderful faith community, I welcome you to Emmanuel Parish, the Episcopal Church in the greater Braintree, Massachusetts area.

Whether you are curious and here to see, weary and here to rest, grateful and here to share, hurting and here for solace, listening and here to pray, seeking and here for answers, we welcome you; and, we are glad that you are here.

Emmanuel Parish operates on a model of shared ministry. Together, our clergy and laity respect and care for each other as individuals. We actively work to build relationships that transcend age, race, gender, sexual orientation, wealth, and politics. We find in each other the support, strength, and joy that can only be known in a community of faith. Our parish mission is to welcome and encourage all persons to grow in their faith in Jesus Christ; to love, accept, and minister to each other; and, to reach out and serve those in need.

Join us, won’t you? You are home at last!
Father Thomas P. Mulvey, Jr.

Emmanuel Episcopal Church History

Emmanuel Parish, Braintree began as a mission of Christ Church, Quincy, a parish founded in 1689 by the Church of England in Old Braintree. In 1906, The Reverend William E. Gardner, Rector of Christ Church, began holding services in Braintree; and in 1909, the new mission was incorporated under its present name with the congregation worshiping in the Masonic Temple. In 1909, The Reverend M. Oakman Patton became the first settled minister, and was followed in 1919 by The Reverend John C. Poland during whose ministry the mission became a parish in 1922.

In December of 1924, the church was built and dedicated. The Reverend J. Holland Beal became Rector in 1936 and during the next four years the parish hall and church tower were erected. Because of close friendship between The Reverend Beal and Dr. Kingsolving, then Rector of Trinity Church, Copley Square, Emmanuel Parish received various items of furniture from Trinity, including our Phillips Brooks altar. The Reverend John R. Dallinger began his ministry in 1940. He took the leadership in a campaign to remove the heavy burden of indebtedness created by the cost of the parish hall. The debt was paid off in the fall of 1947 and the church was consecrated on January 4, 1948 by The Right Reverend Norman B. Nash, then Bishop of Massachusetts.

The Reverend Dallinger served as Rector until 1969, the longest tenure of any rector to-date. He was followed by a number of rectors, including three female priests.

The Reverend Thomas P. Mulvey, Jr. began his ministry here in February of 2009 as Priest-in-Charge and was called as Emmanuel's Thirteenth Rector in September of 2011.
