Christ Church has a rich tradition of faith, fellowship, and serving our neighbors in downtown Springfield and beyond since 1859. Our mission statement is “To know Christ and to make Christ known.” Our parish wants to further share the Good News of Jesus and the gifts of community we have found at Christ Church with the people of our city. In particular we are hoping to partner with our next Rector in attracting newmembers – young and old, single and partnered. We want to expand our educational opportunities and spiritual formation. We also seek a priest who will help us continue to reach out to our community and help those who are broken by life circumstances. We are seeking someone who will both help us grow as a church and as individuals in seeking and serving Christ. Excellent preaching, sound administrative skills, and a solid pastoral presence are all important to us.
Springfield is the largest city in southern Missouri and is known as the “Queen City of the Ozarks.” It is the economic, cultural, educational, and health care hub of Southwest Missouri. Springfield has all the amenities of a mid-sized city while maintaining a friendly, small-town feel. The low cost of living, easy commutes, top-tier health care systems, and friendly nature make it attractive to people of all ages and lifestyles.
