Cross Dive + Pool Opening
image

Each year the faithful of Christ the Savior prayerfully ask the Lord God Almighty to bless the parish pool and the fellowship it provides, throwing in the life-giving Cross of Christ to sanctify the water. The precious Cross is then retrieved by the children of the parish, remembering the words of the Lord, "Anyone who does not take up his cross and follow Me is not worthy of Me." We invite you all to come enjoy the pool and fellowship, and much more so to take up your cross and participate in the Life of Christ! The Cross Dive and Pool Opening are scheduled for Sunday, May 22, 2022. Everyone is welcome!

2026 Annual Parish Meeting - 02/08/26

On Sunday, February 8, 2026, Christ the Savior held its Annual Parish Meeting. The agenda, reports, budget, and draft minutes for the meeting are available below. A central focus of the meeting was continued progress toward building the new temple, including updates on permitting, fundraising milestones, and the launch of the Ambassadors’ Program to engage every household in the effort. Parishioners were encouraged to participate prayerfully and voluntarily as the community moves closer to the active construction phase. We thank all who attended, presented reports, and assisted with the minutes!
