September 26, 2025 Dear Friends in Christ, This harvest season, I give thanks to God for you. I am grateful for your warm welcome and your cultivation of God’s gifts.
Keep us Good Lord under the shadow of your mercy in this time of uncertainty and distress. Sustain and support the anxious and fearful and lift up all who suffer, that we may rejoice in your comfort knowing that nothing can separate us from your love. This we pray in your name.
Amen.
Our magnificent three manual, tracker-action organ was installed in the chancel of the church in the spring of 1982 and dedicated to the Glory of God and in memory of those who died in the First World War and the Second World War.
The organ, built by the Karl Wilhelm Company of Mont St. Hilaire, Quebec, has a classical continental design. The case is made of white oak and the pipe shades are of carved butternut. Voiced in the classic French style, its 36 stops and 50 ranks are capable of interpreting a wide variety of organ literature.
Installation required considerable changes to the chancel including moving the altar forward and arranging choir seating to either side. These renovations prompted the design and production of our award-winning Benedicite Kneelers, done in needlepoint by a dedicated group of church members.
Next SUNDAY! January 25, 2026 at 4:30pm, A Celebration of New Ministry and Induction of Reverend Canon Alison Falby as Christ Church Deer Park's Incumbent. Please join us for this momentous occasion in our Parish's history. There WILL be music! Reception to follow.

Since 1999 Jazz Vespers have been a popular monthly musical event at Christ Church Deer Park.
Vespers is the early evening set of prayers and readings in the church. The term is from the Latin word for “evening.” Lucernarium (lamp or lamp-lighting time) was an early name for vespers. Early Christians continued the Jewish custom of prayer at the time when daylight faded and the lamps were lit.
Traditionally, the prayers are for safety and protection through the night, as well as petitions for a good night’s sleep and holy rest. We have included these prayers and petitions in this afternoon’s service of music and prayer.
At Christ Church Deer Park, we have jazzed it up! ... See MoreSee Less

Musical Preview for Sunday January 4th: As Epiphany is part of the liturgical season of Christmastide, you will notice we still have a few Christmas carols such as The First Nowell featured in our service, alongside Epiphany classics including As With Gladness Men of Old, How Brightly Beams the Morning Star, and We Three Kings (the latter of which will also be sung at the 8am spoken service). The 10:30am choral anthem is an Epiphanytide adaptation of Gustav Holst’s carol Salvator Mundi Natus Est (The Saviour of the World is Born). ... See MoreSee Less

"In the Anglican Church, Epiphany (Jan 6) celebrates the revelation of Jesus as God's Son to the world, primarily marked by the visit of the Magi (Wise Men) to the baby Jesus. It's the start of Epiphanytide, a season focusing on Jesus's growing ministry, light, and God's grace, often including his baptism and first miracle at Cana, as the Church shares this light with the world." Join us This SUNDAY in this celebration in person at 8am, 9:15am or 10:30am (also online).
