Welcome to Christ Episcopal Church

We are members of the worldwide Anglican Communion and the Episcopal Church USA. We are a thriving, integrated, diverse, and all-inclusive congregation proudly located in the Callowhill section of downtown Reading, Pennsylvania. Our congregation began in 1763 and the current beautiful church sanctuary was built in 1826. Our primary form of corporate worship is the celebration of the Holy Eucharist, where we receive God’s gifts to us, giving thanks through prayer and song. We believe and know that God’s unconditional love is available to all people, all the time, and we gather as a community to receive that love. You are invited to join us to pray, and to receive and give thanks. We are a community of faith committed to sharing God’s love with all as we walk the way of Christ towards union with God and God’s creation.

What’s Happening at Christ Church

Join us for events at the church!

Join us for holiday events at CCR! We have so much coming up – check out our Upcoming Events page or follow us on social media (Facebook at Christ Episcopal Church Reading, Instagram and Youtube @rdgchristchurch and @christepiscopalchurchrdg).

Our Rummage Sales this month are December 4th, 7th, and 11th, from 10am – 1pm.

Join us for Adult Forum this Advent season – 9:05am in the Parlor on Sundays – as we talk about The Chosen. This TV show focuses on those around Jesus throughout his life and how they perceived his message and ministry. We will take this time during Sundays in Advent to wonder what it might’ve been like to follow in Jesus’ footsteps 2,000 years ago.

Our Thursday morning Bible Study continues, 9am in the Christ Church library. Prior attendance is not required – all are welcome!

Our Blue Christmas service this year will be Wednesday, December 18th, and feature the music of classical guitarist David Cullen.

Take some respite from your holiday shopping and come for Lessons & Carols! Sunday December 22nd at 5pm, we will celebrate the season with readings and music.
