Description of Organization

Christ the King (CtK) is a daughter church of The Falls Church Anglican, and is a member of the Diocese of the Mid-Atlantic, a regional diocese of the Anglican Church in North America. CtK began in January 2006 under the leadership of the Rev. David Glade. Initially, CtK relied heavily on The Falls Church, Anglican. But, thankfully, the church quickly became self-supporting, and in 2007, elected its first vestry, and David Glade was installed as the rector.

Sunday worship at Christ the King began at Alexandria Country Day School. Starting in 2008, Sunday services moved to 1801 N. Quaker LN. In 2022, after renting for many years, Christ the King purchased the buildings and grounds at 1801 from Convergence Community of Faith.

Outside of Sunday morning worship services, CtK maintains vibrant ministries for children, youth, women, men, and seniors. Our offerings include: small groups and Bible studies; local and international outreach and missions; and community events and concerts.
