At the heart of Vancouver, Christ Church Cathedral exists as a place where worship, justice, beauty, and thoughtful faith meet the life of the city.
We are a Christian community shaped by ancient prayer and contemporary questions—gathering people of many backgrounds into a shared life of reverence, compassion, and service. Whether you come with faith, doubt, or simple curiosity, you are welcome here.
The Cathedral is not only a place you attend, but a place that attends to the world.
Our worship is grounded in the Anglican tradition and shaped by Scripture, music, silence, and sacrament. It is thoughtful without being distant, reverent without being closed, and open to those encountering church for the first time.
Sundays and weekdays, we gather to pray for the city, the world, and one another—trusting that worship forms us for lives of courage, generosity, and hope.
The Cathedral serves the wider community through education, outreach, music, advocacy, and care for those on the margins. We believe faith is not only something we hold, but something we live—expressed through hospitality, justice, and the pursuit of the common good.
From sacred music and public lectures to food security and pastoral care, the Cathedral exists for those who gather here—and for many who never will.
Our preaching engages Scripture, tradition, and the realities of contemporary life—speaking honestly about faith, doubt, suffering, and hope. These reflections are offered freely, both for those who worship with us and for a wider audience seeking thoughtful Christian perspective.
You do not need to know what to wear, when to stand, or what to believe before you come. Many who arrive here are exploring faith for the first time, returning after time away, or simply looking for a place of quiet and meaning in the city.
We would be glad to welcome you, answer your questions, and help you find your way.
