Local & Global Outreach
Anglican leaders provided the following succinct definition of the church’s mission:
“…to make known by word and deed the love of the crucified and risen Christ.”
Thus, Christ the King’s Outreach program endeavors to express Christ’s love through witness and service. We aim to share that which is true, noble, lovely, and admirable (Philippians 4:8), to strengthen our discipleship and bring new people into our community of faith.

CtK Concert Series
One way we share the the beauty of our faith is with the arts. Christ the King hosts a free concert series so that our neighbors may encounter the divine through beautiful music. Offerings range from classical to folk and bluegrass concerts.
Sojourners
We began the Sojourners Ministry in 2016 as we intentionally opened our doors to "M". Like so many, M. had fled the violence of his own nation. He found a new home with us. M. has since been reunited with his family, so we have not yet expanded this ministry. Our goal is to first provide for this family and then prayerfully consider expanding this ministry to others. There are many ways to be involved.
Carpenter’s Shelter
The Carpenter’s Shelter provides shelter, guidance, education, and advocacy for homeless individuals and families in Alexandria.
CtK serve monthly meals on Friday nights and supervise the men’s Winter Shelter on Thursday nights.
casa chirilagua
Casa Chirilagua is a ministry serving our neighbors living in Alexandria. Passionate about being Christ’s image bearers, Casa Chirilagua volunteers live with, profess the gospel to, and serve this community through youth mentorship programs, after school academic tutoring and activities, Bible studies, family-support resources, and English and Spanish literacy classes.

Mission Partner
Serving Northern kenya
Sharing the light of Christ with those who have not yet been reached.
Christ the King is dedicated to one international mission partner with whom we are deeply engaged. He serves in remote regions of northern Kenya, sharing the light of Christ with those who have not yet been reached. Previous Mission Trip: February 10-20. Each year, a small group from Christ the King visits him in Kenya. During these enriching trips, we are able to build relationships and pray with his community, encourage his challenging (and sometimes dangerous) mission work, and help spread the Gospel.
Additionally, Pastor Glade wrote an article for The Apostle about this special partnership.
