Christ Church (Anglican)

The Jesus Is Lord Church in London, formerly known as Christ Church, is a Jesus Is Lord and former Anglican church in London, Ontario, Canada. Built between 1862 and 1863 based on a design by William Robinson, shortly after the establishment of the Diocese of Huron, Christ Church was the second Angl

ican church to be built in the city. It operated for over a hundred and fifty years, closing in 2014 after the congregation had dwindled to 25 members. The two-storey church is built in the High Victorian Gothic style with a wooden structure and white brick exterior. Its western face is marked by three lancet windows that are framed by buttresses that coincide with the inner structure. The shallow chancel, which includes a gallery and staircase, has three stained glass windows on its eastern wall. In 2007, the church was designated under the Ontario Heritage Act.
