Welcome to Christ Church Parish, Redding, CT

we are redding's episcopal parish

We are a welcoming community of loving Christians exploring our faith,

serving others, and growing in God's love. 

Special Announcement!  We are happy to announce that Christ Church Redding has reached the conclusion of its nearly fifteen-month transition process.  It is with great joy and excitement that we welcome Pastor Emilie Finn to the Christ Church family!  Pastor Emilie will serve as our new Priest in Charge.  Pastor Emilie will be with us in worship 2 Sundays each month, and will be available in the office on Mondays and Thursdays every week. You are invited and encouraged to stop by and say hello. Please join us on Sunday, Jan. 21, for a brunch immediately following the service.  The wardens and the Vestry thank you all for your patience and dedication throughout the transition process.  We thank you for your generosity, for supporting us as wardens, and for supporting the missions of Christ Church.  We are excited to continue our path forward with Pastor Emilie!


Dear People of God, 

I am delighted to be joining you at Christ Church! I come to you from the Diocese of Arizona, where I spent my first 10 years as a priest. I have been a church planter, a school chaplain, a religion teacher, and an associate rector. Most recently, I served for five years as the Associate Rector for School & Youth at All Saints' Episcopal Church & Day School in north Phoenix. When I am not working, I enjoy reading, writing, walking, yoga, and spending time with my wife, Deb, and our dog, Cleo. The most exciting part of ministry for me is learning what the Holy Spirit is doing in a community, and discovering the ways in which I can support and participate in that work. I can’t wait to find out where the Holy Spirit is leading us in Redding!


Blessings,

Pastor Emilie
