On this Remembrance Sunday we gather in God's presence to remember the men and women who gave their lives in service to our country - those who laid down their freedom, so that we might live in peace. We are reminded of Jesus' words: "Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends." - John 15:13. We hope you will join us for the Choral Matins 10:30 am worship service. ... See MoreSee Less

This Sunday at Christ Church Deer Park we raise our voices in celebration of the saints. Featured hymns include For All The Saints, Ye Watchers and Ye Holy Ones, Who Are These Like Stars Appearing? and The Eternal Gifts of Christ the King (a fourth-century hymn thought to have been written by St. Ambrose of Milan). The choral anthem will be Henry Walford Davies’ poignant Blessed are the Pure in Heart.
