MISSION
All that we do as Christ's people is part of the whole mission of God
|
Our Vision
We aim to grow more as an inclusive Christian community in the Anglican tradition that:
worships God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit
communicates the gospel to the residents, workers and visitors of South Yarra and beyond
nurtures and matures faith: in God and one another
We seek to provide:
liturgy and music of the highest quality
intelligent preaching and teaching for all ages
physical and spiritual support for those in need
a welcoming
and
safe space for those who have been hurt by the Church or others
buildings that are open for prayer and fellowship, for baptisms, marriages and funerals;
and for those who are seeking a place of peace and transcendence
Christian education through Christ Church Grammar School and programs for those of all ages
resources for the Diocese
of Melbourne and the wider Church
Our faith and actions should be generous and
hospitable at all times,
as encouraged by,
and in response to, our most gracious and welcoming God.

ministry in the world. Christ Church supports various organisations, including:
ABM
(nominated projects, Good Friday appeal for Jerusalem)
AngliCORD (Mozambique fund)

Trinity College Theological School
As a project of the 150th Anniversary of CCSY, the parish and school jointly
supported
St Paul's Primary School Dogura, Milne Bay, in Papua New Guinea - an ABM project. The new buildings were completed
and blessed in 2008.
