About Christ Church Vienna

Christ Church Vienna is a gospel driven, externally focused, extended family, Anglican mission for Vienna, VA that began in November of 2011 with the aim of allowing the gospel of Jesus Christ to fill and transform us and our neighborhood. We are a church that is externally focused aiming to be for, not just in, the town of Vienna—we partner with the public schools, town businesses and other churches. CCV is a friendly local church with a vibrant student ministry (with a unique partnership with Young Life) and a growing Spanish ministry connecting into the nearby Latino community.

We are an Anglican church that blends the ancient and modern: older hymns and new music; historic Communion liturgy (weekly) but with an informal vibe in the non-traditional environment of a High School auditorium. We aim to experience God not just in song, but in all aspects of our corporate gatherings—scripture and prayer; creed and confession; word and sacrament, friendly greetings, personal stories and conversations over coffee.
