welcome

Christ Church Cathedral is an Episcopal church in an urban environment. By visiting this website, you can learn about our location in downtown Hartford, the times of our services, where to park on a Sunday morning, concerts and other upcoming events, and the many ways you can help those in need through our outreach programs.

All are welcome. We are a diverse congregation of people from the Greater Hartford region. Our parishioners come from nearby and farther out to worship, pray, serve and learn together. The Episcopal church is a safe place where differing points of view, as well as questions, are welcomed as part of our spiritual journey. Many are drawn by the beauty of our sacred space, others are inspired by our worship and music, and still others are nourished by being part of a community of believers in Jesus Christ. Our faith is based on Scripture, tradition and reason.

We hope this visit to our website will encourage you to visit us in person. As Jesus said, “Come and see.” Come and see what God is doing in and through our ministries.

There is a place for all of God’s people here.
