Christ Church is located in the Old City of Jerusalem. It was built in 1849 by the London Jewish community. The purpose of the organization was to introduce the Jews to the Christian faith. Jewish symbols and texts found in the church remind us that Judaism and Christianity have been closely related since ancient times. The community at the Church of Christ consists of foreigners who came to serve in Israel and the local population (both Jews and Arabs). The English-speaking community also provides services in Hebrew. They celebrate both Jewish and Christian holidays. In 2008, the Gafcon Jerusalem Declaration was approved by the Church of Christ. Today, the Church works closely with the Anglican Church in the United States, Britain, Uganda and South Africa. There is also a dining room, a small hostel and a museum.
