Welcome to Christ Church Cathedral in Victoria, BC! We are delighted you have decided to visit. As you explore these pages, it is our hope that you will experience something of the ministry and mission of this very special place, and that you will be moved to become more involved with us in whatever way is right for you.  If you would like to learn more about the Cathedral, please complete the short form  HERE

The Cathedral plays three main roles:

  • We are a large and active parish community – offering a full schedule of daily and weekly services and a rich variety of other programs and activities.
  • We are the cathedral church of the Diocese of British Columbia – the focal point for the Anglican Church of Canada on these islands in the Salish Sea.
  • We strive to be a Cathedral for the City – making a unique contribution to the cultural, social and spiritual life of everyone who lives in or visits Victoria and the Capital Regional District.

We do all these things through worship and prayer . . . through music and the visual arts . . . through outreach initiatives and engagement in social justice issues . . . through educational programs and community events.  We hope to combine the best of Anglican tradition with the most relevant of contemporary innovation, in a way that lives out the eternal truth of the Gospel for people of all ages.

Our home is an historic building of great beauty and profound spirituality, whose doors are open daily for worship, prayer, meditation, or just to visit.  We welcome people of any faith or of none; we see ourselves as a safe space within the city, committed to bringing diverse folk together.

We understand ourselves to be on a journey – an exciting journey of exploration and discovery with each other, and with God.  Along the way, we aim at being an inclusive and welcoming community.

Please come and join us on this journey – whether in person or at a distance . . . for a short time or a lifetime.  We would love to meet you or hear from you.

The Cathedral is very thankful to have been granted a three-year permissive tax exemption (2022-2025) from the City of Victoria, allowing us to fund more community programs for those in need.
