Christ Church Portola Valley and Woodside

An Episcopal church and house of prayer for all.

Welcome!

To all who are young and need counsel; To all who are grateful and want to pray; To all who are strong and want a task;
To all who are weary and need rest; To all who are lonely and want companionship; To all who mourn and need comfort;
To all who are joyous and want to give thanks; To all who are sinful and need a Savior-- To whosoever will:
This church opens wide its doors and, in the name of Christ our Lord, says, Welcome!

Our regular worship services are
Sunday at 8:00 am and 10:00 am.
Our worship services are liturgically traditional, and our theology is progressive.

Worship Services

8:00 am - Traditional Eucharist Service This is our most traditional service and follows Rite 1, from the Book of Common Prayer.
10:00 am - Eucharist Service with Choir This service has a choir and the children's bell choir often participates. During this service, childcare is provided in the nursery for children under 5 and Sunday School for kids aged 5 to 12. However, kids are always welcome at any service.
Second Sundays of the Month at 10:00 am On the second Sunday of each month, we offer an alternative service that usually focuses on a seasonal theme, using imaginative poetry, art and music.
