Annual Fellowship Traditions
One of the many positive things Christ Church is known for is its welcoming spirit and there are many occasions to feel part of the Bay St. Louis community. We truly see ourselves as a family and love breaking bread together, both at the altar and through fellowship as often as possible. Coming together with new acquaintances or joining long-time friends for coffee, a good meal, thoughtful conversation, or in prayer is what makes Christ Church a special church home.
