|
Christ Church is a parish (of the Episcopal Church and the worldwide Anglican
Communion) that is at once traditional and progressive; historical yet dealing with all of
the issues that face American Christians today. The parish sees as its mission standing
as a beacon of hope in the center of the city.
Always striving to be faithful to the name it bears, remembering that it is Christ's church,
the parish works at the alleviation of human suffering through a variety of outreach
programs; at helping the "children of men become the children of God" through
Christian education and youth ministries and the work of the Episcopal Day School;
and at cultivating the "abundance of life" in its community through the world-class events
of Music at Christ Church, including "ClassicFest," Pensacola's summer chamber
music festival.
Central in the life of the parish is the Sunday
celebration of the Eucharist. The people of Christ
Church worship God "in the beauty of holiness" in a
way that many Episcopalians find inspiring, uplifting,
challenging, and comforting.
With more than 165 years of tumultuous history
behind it, the parish today stands as the largest in its
Diocese of the Central Gulf Coast and one of the
largest in Florida. Activities for children, youth and
adults take place throughout the year, making Christ
Church a very busy place.
