Christ Episcopal Church
Share a story
Love God. Care for Each Other. Serve the World.
Located in the Myers Park neighborhood of Charlotte, North Carolina, our church is a beautiful place, steeped in sacred tradition yet always looking, thinking and moving forward with God’s grace. In 1943, Christ Church (then known as Christ Church Mission) was formally recognized by the Diocese of North Carolina with 98 families in membership. Today we are a large, diverse Episcopal Church with over 6,000 members of varied spiritual inclinations: conservative and liberal, traditional and charismatic, evangelical and social justice. We are deeply committed to serving and advocating for justice in our city, nation, and world.
OUR VISION
We aspire to be Christ's Church in the world.
OUR MISSION
To engage, equip and empower people to love God, care for each other and serve the world in the name of Christ.
OUR CORE VALUES
We are a Christ-centered Episcopal church rooted in scripture, tradition and reason; respectful of and strengthened by our differences. We are committed to being a loving community of support and spiritual growth; being faithful stewards of God's many blessings; and using God's gifts to serve the needs of our community and world. We are inspired by the belief that with God's help we will accomplish whatever God calls us to do. (Adopted by the Vestry, 2007)

Ministries
Sacred Ground Race Dialogue Circles
Sacred Ground is dialogue series on race, grounded in faith. Small groups are invited to walk through chapters of America’s history of race, racism, and whiteness while weaving in threads of family story, economic class, and political and regional identity. The 10-part series is built around a powerful online curriculum of documentary films and readings that focus on Indigenous, Black, Latino, and Asian/Pacific American histories as they intersect with European American histories.
Sacred Ground is a resource coming out of Becoming Beloved Community, The Episcopal Church’s long-term commitment to racial healing, reconciliation, and justice in our personal lives, our ministries, and our society. This series is especially designed to help white people talk with other white people, while being open to all racial/ethnic groups. Participants are invited to peel away the layers that have contributed to the challenges and divides of the present day – all while grounded in our call to faith, hope and love.
