When Brian and I got married in 2013, we both came from backgrounds of faith, but had not yet found a church that we could call home. A few years later, we were invited by friends to attend a service at Christ Church. Without knowing much about the church, or the Episcopal faith, we decided to give it a try. Right away, we were impressed by the kindness and warmth of the parish, and the welcoming words spoken by the priest. The readings and sermon were delivered in a peaceful, yet purposeful manner. It felt like an outstretched hand to the table of the Lord. We were invited to take part in formation classes, book clubs, and volunteer opportunities that all continued to deepen our love of this church community. It became clear to us that Christ Church was aligned with how we felt we could best glorify, praise, and serve God.
Today, we consider ourselves truly blessed to watch our two young children grow up in a church where they are encouraged to find joy in a life of faith. They look around each Sunday to see other families and parishioners from all walks of life who have felt the same call to be a part of this wonderful church community.
Our yearly donation is given with the hope that Christ Church will continue to find a place in many hearts, and that by doing so, we can continue to spread the Word of God, and extend invitations to His table.
