Welcome to Christ Church, Shrewsbury, New Jersey


Christ Church is an Episcopal community that welcomes all into the Household of Faith. We continually seek new ways to broaden our ministry, to renew our faith, and to serve Christ in all persons. Together we strive for justice and peace among all people and respect the dignity of every human being.

All baptized Christians are welcome to share in Holy Communion.


* Regular Season Worship Services Resume in September

The regular Sunday worship service schedule resumes in September. On Sept. 7, a service will be offered at 8 a.m. at the sanctuary, with Holy Eucharist offered at 10 a.m. at the Parish Picnic.

Starting on Sept. 14, both the 8 a.m. and 10 a.m. services will be offered at the sanctuary.

* Windows Restoration Continues

The restoration of the windows in the sanctuary continues; plans call for each to be removed, taken to Art of Glass Studios in Media, Pa., and returned in time for the holidays. The Vestry recently decided to include all windows, not just those facing north and south in the sanctuary.

The church has received more than $155,000 in pledges and grants for the project, including grants from the Monmouth County Historic Commission and the State of New Jersey. More information.

* Parish Picnic set for Sept. 7

The Parish Picnic will be held following a 10 a.m. Mass at a private residence. Hot dogs, hamburgers and soft drinks will be supplied. Please bring a dish to share, swimsuits, towels, sunscreen, lawn chairs and play equipment.


* Celebration of the Ministry of Deacon Clarke Sept. 14

A celebration of the ministry of Deacon Debra Clarke is set for Sept. 14 at the 10 a.m. service. Deacon Clarke has served the church for eight years and will be leaving for a new ministry. Details to follow.

* Trinity Cathedral Community Day Oct. 13

The fourth annual Trinity Cathedral Community Day will be held at 10 a.m. Monday, Oct. 13, at the Mercer Oaks West Golf Club, West Windsor. Christ Church will be one of 30 churches competing for the Bishop's Cup; individual prizes are also offered. The program includes Mass with Bishop George Councell followed by the golf outing.
The cost is $160 per golfer; non-golfers can opt to attend an evening dinner only for $30.

* Property Work Day
The Second Saturday work day resumes in September; it's held from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. rain or shine.
