Due to both the winter weather and the ongoing pandemic, out of an abundance of caution, Christ Church will no longer be holding in-person outdoor services.
As a result, from Sunday, December 20 and until further notice, Christ Church will be livestreaming Sunday Worship Service from inside the Church. The service will include only the rector, the organist and a soloist, and will be available online via Zoom or the Christ Church YouTube channel.
To learn about upcoming services, call the church office (201-652-2350).
We will continue to share in multiple online worship offerings, as well as discussion forums and phone-based meetings. We will continue to worship Christ - outdoors, online, in new ways - together. Nothing can stop that.
View, subscribe, and check back often for new posts, including worship services, stories from Miss Kristen, music, and more.
Christ Church on YouTubeGifts to the Episcopal Diocese of Newark in the form of stocks or mutual funds that have appreciated in value may be especially attractive to you under the current tax laws. With a charitable gift of appreciated securities held long-term, the donation you make and the deduction you get are greater than they would be if you were to sell the shares and donate the cash proceeds. That is because when you donate shares, you avoid incurring capital gains.
Please be aware that donor information will not be included with your electronic transfer, so you should alert us in advance of the security name and/or ticker symbol and number of shares you plan to give. You can do so by emailing Noel Garcia or calling at 973-430-9984.
