Sunday Fun! For children 3-11 years

We invite children ages 3-11 to Christ Episcopal Church on the first three Sundays each month from 9 am to 10 am to explore their own spirituality, build meaningful friendships, and develop a loving relationship with God! 

Each week, we’ll have time for:

  • Prayer

  • A short reading from the Bible

  • A reflective and imaginative discussion

  • An arts and crafts activity

  • A blessing in Church

This is a fun, safe, and free program for all of God’s children. Please invite the children in your life!

 Who We Are

Welcome to the shared ministry of St. Andrew’s and Christ Episcopal Church, two parishes which have joined together to glorify God! Worshiping mostly in Redondo Beach and offering Korean-language and Taizé services in Torrance, we are a faithful mission-centered community, worshiping in the Anglican tradition.  

As people of prayer, we worship and celebrate Holy Eucharist in-person on Sundays at 9 a.m. We hold online Morning Prayer each weekday at 9 a.m. and Online Bible Study with theological reflection at 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. on Tuesdays. We offer many opportunities to participate actively in the community through our various ministries. 

We are a community for all, welcoming all, and we look forward to seeing you soon! Please call or email us with any questions.

Christ Church, Redondo Beach

When the church was dedicated on Jan. 4, 1893, the Redondo Compass reported: “The style of architecture is Gothic. Christ Church is a very pretty little building, one of which the Episcopalians may well be proud. The inside is finished in Oregon pine and redwood.”
