History
Christ Episcopal Church is a thriving parish located in the heart of Temple, TX. We were founded over 130 years ago in the rich tradition of liturgy, music and service to God’s world.
Christ Episcopal Church welcomes all. Our mission is “knowing Christ and making Him known” which we do especially through worship, children’s and youth ministries, adult education, mission and outreach. We strive to continually find new and exciting ways to live out our faith life together.
Our congregation is a blend of long-time Temple families and newcomers, life-long Episcopalians and those new to the Episcopal Church. We are the spiritual home of young-adult and mid-life singles, couples of all ages, families with toddlers, elementary aged children and/or teens, as well as many active seniors in the prime of life.
Christ Episcopal Church provides lifelong discipleship for all, through worship and education, Bible and book studies, and opportunities for mission work, both within the community and beyond. We are called to build community in Christ’s name.
