Christ Church of Austin

What Christ Church of Austin does

Christ Church of Austin is an Anglican congregation located at 112 Medina Street in Austin, Texas, operating as a private religious nonprofit within the Churches for the Sake of Others (C4SO) diocese of the Anglican Church in North America. The church delivers two Sunday worship services (9:00am in-person and 11:00am in-person plus livestream), alongside a broad portfolio of ministries including children's programming (Kids Quest), youth and college ministries (Eikon, Ignite), women's and men's ministry, an Encore program for adults aged 60+, Faith & Arts programming, and a Mothers ministry. Pastoral care is delivered through dedicated Prayer, Stephen, Lay Eucharistic, Spiritual Direction, Sacred Stories, and Living Waters (relational healing) ministries. The organization is led by Rector Fr. Matt Dampier, installed June 16, 2024 following Fr. Cliff Warner's 18-year tenure, supported by an Executive Director of Operations, Treasurer, and pastors overseeing Worship, Small Groups, Care, Student Ministries, Children's Ministries, and Vocation.

The church's underlying technology footprint is non-proprietary and limited to standard digital channels: a WordPress website with CliffNotes E-News email newsletter, sermon podcasts distributed via Blubrry, embedded YouTube video content, livestreaming of the 11:00am Sunday service, and an online giving portal. No AI/ML capabilities, proprietary platforms, or application products are operated. Revenue is generated entirely through voluntary tithes, offerings, and pledge cards presented during annual stewardship celebrations, supplemented by online giving — the church does not publicly disclose financial figures. Distribution occurs through the physical Medina Street campus plus digital livestream and podcast channels, with mission engagement extended via partnerships with More Than Welcome (refugees), RBJ Senior Center (elderly), BCCM (children's food insecurity), Education Connection at Zavala Elementary, Community First! Village, the Matthew 25 Initiative, Abara Border Encounter, A Rocha USA, United Adoration, and The Diaspora Network. The customer base consists of Austin-area congregation members and donors, with no commercial or institutional paying customers.

• Austin Stone Community Church: Large, multi-site, non-denominational church headquartered in Austin with comparable discipleship, small group, and outreach infrastructure. Peer because it competes for the same Austin resident base seeking community, formation, and service opportunities, though operating under a different theological tradition.
• St. David's Episcopal Church: Large mainline Episcopal/Anglican parish in Austin offering traditional liturgical worship, formation programs, and community outreach. Peer because of overlapping tradition, shared Austin geography, and similar community-oriented ministry portfolio.
• All Saints' Episcopal Church (Austin): Austin Episcopal parish providing liturgical worship and community ministries to a comparable demographic. Peer because it operates in the same Austin religious market with similar outreach and formation programming.
• Christ Church Plano: ACNA Anglican parish in the Dallas-Fort Worth metro. Peer because of shared Anglican Church in North America affiliation, similar Texas urban context, and comparably broad program portfolio across worship, formation, and mission.
