Our Facilities

  The Baden Community Outreach Center

Located at 11 N. Washington Street, this Center is dedicated to the life of The Right Reverend John A. Baden, Rector of Christ Church and Frederick Parish from 1962-1973, and Suffragan Bishop of Virginia from 1973-1979. The building serves as a meeting place for Christ Church youth group programs, various community groups and is home to the Winchester Senior Center.

  Christ Church

This house of worship was built in 1828 on the corner of Washington and Boscawen Streets, is the oldest church building in Winchester that has been in continuous use for religious purposes. Sunday Services are 8:00 a.m. Holy Eucharist and 10:30 a.m. Holy Eucharist or Morning Prayer. The Fairfax Room, located down the stairs at the back of the church, is a spacious room with comfortable chairs, a kitchen, and bathrooms. The 10:30 a.m. service can be followed from there through an audio system by anyone who so desires.

  Court Yard

Given in memory of long-time parishioner Marion Park Lewis, the Church Yard provides a place of rest and quiet and holds the historic tomb of Thomas, Sixth Lord Fairfax. A slipe provides a connection between the church and the Parish Hall. Seasonal plantings and garden lighting adorn the borders.A Columbarium was installed in the courtyard in 2007. 

  The Old Rectory

This building served as a home for ministers of Frederick Parish from 1839 until after World War II. The Reverend Robert B. ("Parson") Nelson, Rector from 1921-1946, and his family were the last residents in this stately manse. Since that time the Old Rectory has housed parish offices and church school rooms and has been used for small classes and gatherings. Some of the historical and classical books of the Frances Jones Library are in the East Parlor. The second floor houses church school rooms and the office of the Director of Christian Education.

  The Parish Hall

Tilford Room

Seating over 200 people for a meal, the Tilford Room accommodates parish functions, receptions and large classes. A well equipped kitchen, storage rooms, tape ministry office and computer and TV capacity enable the congregation to provide hospitality, education, and welcome to all.

Education Facilities

Located on the second floor of the Parish Hall and the Old Rectory, our classrooms open onto a central commons area that is used for multiple purposes. The Nursery for children through age 2, is supervised by a paid staff person as well as volunteers. It is located near the elevator and stairway on the second floor. The Children's Chapel provides a sacred space for children ages 3 to 7 to participate in age appropriate worship and activities during a part of the church service. The main portion of the Frances Jones Library is off the commons in the tower and provides easy access to parish reading materials.

  The Pilgrims Chapel

Open on a 24-hour basis to the public as a place for private devotions as well as weekly services, small weddings and funerals. The applewood cross and the altar base have been crafted by parishioners. The altar top, or "mensa" stone, is from the original altar at Christ Church. The chapel was given in memory of William P. and Ruth Massey.
