Christ Episcopal Church

About this church

Christ Episcopal Church in downtown Tuscaloosa, Alabama, holds three Holy Eucharist services on Sunday mornings at 7:30, 9, and 11 a.m., and describes itself as the oldest Episcopal church in northern Alabama, founded in 1828. The 7:30 service uses Rite I with no hymns. The 9 a.m. family service uses Rite II, includes Children's Chapel, and has a Children's Liturgy on the second Sunday of each month. The 11 a.m. service uses Rite II with the full adult choir and unabbreviated hymns. Weekday Eucharist is offered on Wednesdays at 7 a.m. and Thursdays at noon, and a summer schedule can change the Sunday times.

Children's Sunday formation classes run most Sundays from August through May, with a nursery open during the 9 and 11 a.m. services. The Episcopal Youth Community serves grades six through twelve on Sunday and Wednesday nights, and a college ministry is listed as well. Outreach includes respite care, a utility assistance ministry, a soup kitchen, and a reading program. The church sits behind the Bama Theatre, and a free parking deck is nearby because street parking is limited. Call 205.758.4252 for questions, and confirm times on the website before visiting.
