Summer Giving Reminder

Summer is a time of rest and renewal—but also a challenge for churches as routines and attendance shift. Your continued financial support ensures Christ Church’s ministries remain strong all year long.



Whether you give weekly, monthly, or quarterly, your generosity makes a lasting difference. Consider setting up online giving for a simple and consistent way to give—even while traveling.

Thank you for your faithfulness and support. Your generosity reflects God’s love at work in our community.

ECW - Episcopal Church Women

All women who attend Christ Church are considered members of the ECW. Since 1871, the National Episcopal Church Women, ECW, have championed women’s rights and the Christian foundation of God and family. They are a ministry of the Episcopal Church and celebrate that Episcopalians believe in a loving, liberating, and life-giving God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. 

Brotherhood of St. Andrew

Join The Brotherhood of St. Andrew for prayer, study, and service. The Brotherhood of St. Andrew is an international ministry of men within the Anglican Communion with the commission of spreading Christ’s kingdom among men and youth. The Mission of the Brotherhood of St. Andrew has been bringing men and youth to Jesus Christ since its founding in 1883. The Brotherhood in fulfilling its mission does so by following the three key disciplines of prayer, study, and service. Please plan on attending the 6:30 pm Mid-week Mass before the meeting.
