Christ Church is grounded in history and tradition yet is seeking to clarify our identity as a community of worshippers, looking for the balance between tradition and change. 

The joy and beauty of our church and the beauty of the liturgy, central in the life of our church, is something we naturally want to share; in return, reaching out to others reinforces the spirit of communion within worship.

A broad church orientation allows us to love unreservedly the Anglican rites and rituals but directs us both inward and outward as we celebrate them. We are reminded of Urban Holmes's wonderful insight that when Anglicanism is at its best "its poetry, its music and its life can create a world of wonder in which it is very easy to fall in love with God."  (What Is Anglicanism?, p.5) And we remember that in its fullest attainment that love is both personal and shared.

Sharing and broadness carry implications of an evangelical mission. Outreach and education and hospitality are parts of this mission within and without the congregation. The ministry is to the larger community, to our seniors and to our young people.
