Who we are

Christ Church Westshore’s vision is to be a center of learning, compassion for others, and families. We desire to be faithful followers of Jesus as we:

Worship with one another, hearing God’s word and sharing in His sacraments. Build relationships with one another through informal social gatherings and Bible studies. Pray for one another and the world. Support one another through life’s difficult times and circumstances. Raise our children and nurture our families in the love and knowledge of Jesus Christ and the Word of God.

The essential truths of our denomination, The Anglican Church in North America, are contained in the Thirty-nine Articles of Religion and the historic creeds of the church (Apostles’ Creed, Nicene Creed and the Creed of St. Athanasius).

To meet us and see what we are about, we invite you to visit us on a Sunday morning, join us in worship and meet our ministers.

Sunday Services are held at 8:00 a.m. (Communion), 9:30 a.m. (Communion) and 11:00 a.m. (Morning Prayer; Holy Communion is celebrated at this service on the first Sunday of each month and on feast days) at Anchor Church, 32607 Electric Blvd., Avon Lake, OH 44012.

Christ Church Westshore is a member of the Anglican Diocese of the Great Lakes (ADGL) and the Anglican Church in North America (ACNA).

Leader Bio:
Gene Sherman is a native of Northern Virginia and attended George Mason University for his undergraduate studies in Education. He married Kim in 1985 and began a teaching career in the Maryland and Virginia public schools. After serving 11 years as a teacher, Gene and his family followed God’s call into full time Christian ministry serving at St. Paul Church in Bennettsville, SC in 1996. In 1999, God called the Sherman’s to seminary which involved a move to Ambridge, PA where Gene studied for the next four years at Trinity School for Ministry. Upon graduating with a Master in Divinity from Trinity in 2003, Gene served as the Assistant Rector at Trinity Church in Beaver, PA for four years. His responsibilities included Discipleship, Evangelism, and Student Ministry. In July, 2007 God called Gene to become the Rector of St. Barnabas Anglican Church. In November 2011 this congregation became Christ Church Westshore and Gene continues to serve as their Rector.

Gene enjoys reading, watching hockey and baseball with his family, and “chilling out” with Sherlock, his Basset Hound. Gene and Kim have four children. Zack and his wife, Mary live in Chicago. Their daughter, Rebecca and her husband, George Hampe, live in New Haven, CT. Ben lives in Lakewood and D.T. is a student at Kent University.   Edit

Christ Church Westshore Service Times

Sunday 8:00 a.m. Service

At 8:00 a.m. every Sunday we celebrate Holy Communion. The service is contemplative and intimate, with a cappella hymns and a more formal liturgical feel. All baptized Christian believers are welcome to receive communion at the Lord’s Table at Christ Church.

Sunday 9:30 a.m. Service

Our 9:30 a.m. Holy Communion service is more dynamic and incorporates more music, both traditional and modern.

Parents are encouraged to have their children with them during the service, although Nursery care is offered for infants through age 5 during the entire service. From September through May children in grades K-4 start in Kid’s Catechism (“KidCat”) where they are introduced to our ancestors in faith and learn their stories, and develop an understanding of basic Christian beliefs. They join the adults in the service for Communion.

Sunday 11:00 a.m. Service

At 11:00 a.m. we offer Morning Prayer, with Communion celebrated on the first Sunday of each month and feast days. This service is the least formal of the three services and a good introduction to a liturgical form of worship. Nursery care is offered for infants through age 5. After worshiping at the 9:30 a.m. service, middle school kids (H2H) and high school students meet downstairs for their time of study and fellowship.

Wednesday 10:30 a.m. Service

Our Holy Communion service on Wednesday mornings is held in Auburn Hall at Bay Presbyterian Church, 25415 Lake Road, Bay Village, Ohio. The service is similar to Sunday’s 8:00 a.m. service, with a teaching and discussion of the scripture readings in place of a formal sermon .

It's been more than 6 years since the last service times update. Please make sure to contact the church to confirm service times.

Christ Church Westshore Historical Photos

The power of Christian prayer Light of the World
Jesus, the Light of the World, as we celebrate your birth... may we begin to see the world in the light of understanding you give us. As you chose the lowly, the outcasts, and the poor to receive the greatest news the world had ever known, so may we worship you in meekness of heart. May we also remember our brothers and sisters less fortunate than ourselves in this season of giving. Amen.
