Christ Episcopal Church

Christ Episcopal Church was organized as a parish on May 11, 1851.  The Rev. Henry Sansom of Marshall, was called upon to offer services one Sunday a month.  From that early beginning to the present, the communicates of this Episcopal witness in Marion County have faithfully kept the flame of ministry alive.  Through both difficult and more comfortable times Christ Church has continued as the northern most church of the Episcopal Diocese of Texas.  Now with 45 active members Christ Church offers Bible studies, exercise class, Bridge club and a gathering place for two Alcoholics Anonymous meetings.  Christ Church members are very active in the life of Jefferson contributing many hours of volunteer work.
