EVENTS

In addition to Sunday worship, special events are held from time to time at Christ Church, some traditional and some new.   Our beautiful chapel, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, may be used for baptisms, confirmations, weddings, and memorial services of all faiths, concerts and recitals.

Blessing of the Animals

In past summers Christ Church has held a Blessing of the Animals service, complete with liturgy and music that celebrated all our beloved pets, including teddy bears!

Baptisms and Weddings

Starting a new life, or a new life together, is a most memorable occasion at Christ Church.  Baptisms and weddings are some of our most memorable services.

Concerts

Music is a special part of life at Christ Church, and includes periodic community-wide concerts and special performances.  The Yale Whiffenpoofs of 1954 (left) joined our choir for a memorable summer service.

Anniversary Sunday

Each year, the first Sunday in August celebrates the  founding of Christ Church in 1892 by  John Turner Atterbury, Jeffrey R. Brackett, William Ingham, William Ellis Scull, and Dexter Tiffany.

In 2018 we celebrated the 125th anniversary of Christ Church.
