Christ Church, High Harrogate is a parish church in the Church of England located in Harrogate. It was the first church building to be built in Harrogate and is today home to a thriving congregation and - along with the attached Parish Centre - an important focus of community activities. ==History== Christ Church, High Harrogate was the first permanent church building in Harrogate. Originally a chapel of ease to St John's, Knaresborough, the bulk of the present building was erected in 1831 to designs by John Oates (architect) and consecrated as the first parish church in the town. The transepts and chancel were added in 1862 by Henry Francis Lockwood and William Mawson. There have been significant changes to the building in the 1920s (many major internal changes), the 1930s (the installation of the Compler reredos) and the 1980s (the building of the attached parish centre.) Christ Church has in turn planted a series of other churches across the town including St. Peter's (1870), St Luke's (1898), and St Andrew's Starbeck (1911). Like Christ Church itself, all of these are thriving Christian communities today. Christ Church is home to a thriving Christian community of 300+ adults and 170+ children and young people. Although standing in the mainstream of the Anglican (Church of England) tradition, Christ Church seeks actively to welcome people of all traditions. Sunday Worship: - 8 am: Holy Communion, a simple said celebration lasting about 40 minutes, with a short address - 10 am: the Parish Eucharist, the main act of Sunday worship at Christ Church with a large congregation of all ages, and a variety of styles of music.
