Sunday Worship
Our 8 a.m. communion service is traditional in nature and includes hymns with organ
and homily. It is a wonderful service of quiet solemnity, couched in ancient liturgy.
Our 10:30 a.m. Eucharist (which means in the Greek, thanksgiving and is another
word for Communion or The Lord’s Supper) is a blended service of both
traditional and contemporary components. Combining heart and art, this service is a
powerful expression of love and praise to our Creator. Historic liturgy, grand music, and
biblically-focused preaching are the hallmarks of this service.
Our 9:00 p.m. Service of Compline (Kahm-plihn) is chanted by the Compline Choir of Christ Church Savannah. The choir, made up of singers from churches around the city, sings in the darkened nave of Christ Church by candlelight. Compline, the last of the monastic prayer services before retiring, is a service in which one is invited to meditate and reflect on the day or week past and then enter into the little death of sleep to rise with hope and thanksgiving for the days ahead.
Wednesday Worship
The Wednesday Chapel Eucharist is a quiet, intimate time of worship that brings to the
middle of a busy week a moment of reflective refreshment. Saints honored by the church are
remembered on this day, and special prayers for the sick are included. After the 30-35
minute service, worshippers who wish to remain for intercessory prayer are encouraged to
do so.
Prayer Meeting
Come join with us in praying for one another, the Church, and the world. The
meeting begins with a brief study of an aspect of prayer, after which the remainder of
time is spent at prayer in the Chapel.
