Who we are

Parish Vision

Your Story, Our Stories, God’s Story. Let’s find where they meet.

Change In Service Times for the Summer

On Sunday, June 17, we begin our summer schedule, with Sunday services at 9:00 a.m. As for the last two years, if the temperature is above 25C at 8 a.m., the service at 9 will be moved to the lounge. We will continue with 9 a.m. services through to Labour day, and return to two services beginning on September 9.

Gift Card Sale

It was decided that the gift cards will continue once a month. Jackie Lue will take the orders to the 3rd Sunday of every month. This fundraiser is to continue the work of the Lighthouse Project, more specifically, replacing the windows in the Upper Hall.

Please note: all the orders and cheques should be given directly to Jackie or

left in her mailbox in the church office.

The Church Needs Many Hands!

The Warden's have a list of fun and exciting projects needing done around the church and rectory. Please check the list located in the church and if you see a ministry that fits your time, energy and skill level, please add your name.

Would you like to be more involved with the Sunday Service?

Father Mark and the Worship Team are looking for Servers and Crucifers to help with the 10:00 a.m. service. Job descriptions for these ministries can be found in the Narthex. Please talk to Fr. Mark if you would like to be a part of the team.

Christ Church History

Christ Church Woodbridge traces its beginnings from 1842 when the Church of England and Ireland established itself in Pine Grove and Burwick. Services of worship were first held in a small log building located on a farm behind the present Pine Grove Nursing Home on Islington Avenue. Services were conducted there until 1850.

As the population in the area grew, it was decided that the church needed to serve both Pine Grove and Burwick communities so land was purchased for a church and burying ground, which is now the present day site of Christ Church Woodbridge.

On Sunday morning, February 20, 1921, a fire broke out and within an hour and a half; all that remained of the white frame building was a brick chimney and a few charred beams. The congregation, decided with unanimity and enthusiasm to rebuild. The new brick church, which stands today, was reopened for services on December 4, 1921, with over 1,000 people in attendance.

The 100th anniversary of the church was given special recognition with its Christmas Day service broadcast nationwide by CBC Radio.

We have recently celebrated our 165th anniversary. The spirit shown in the congregation over these many years remains the same today. You are invited to come and be a part of our history.

Visit our website regularly as we develop and adapt it to meet the needs of the parish and surrounding community. Watch for announcements of Upcoming Events – “Annual Church Picnic”, “Strawberry Social”, “Salad Supper”.

Please feel free to contact the church via email at [email protected] or during office hours for further information on weddings, baptisms, special upcoming services, events, etc.

We look forward to welcoming you.
