Description of Organization

Christ Church Vienna was founded in 2011 out of The Falls Church Anglican after Pastor Johnny Kurcina felt called to plant a new church in Vienna, VA – a vision he had been praying about since 2003. Rooted in the Anglican tradition, the church is part of the Diocese of the Mid-Atlantic and the Anglican Church in North America, maintaining close ties with The Falls Church Anglican and other Anglican churches. The community is centered on being an externally focused, gospel-driven church family, welcoming people of all ages and stages of life. Christ Church Vienna gathers for worship each Sunday at 10:00 AM in the Madison High School Auditorium.
