CROSBY - Residents seeking
a place of worship on Sunday
will soon have a new option as
the community’s first Anglican
church opens its doors next
month.
Church of the Resurrection
founder Rusty Ellisor will host a
community meeting at 6 p.m.,
Sunday at the Crosby Brethren
Church to welcome and speak
with those interested in becom-
ing part of the new congregation. |
Ellisor, a former Baptist pastor
and director of Houston’s Church
of the Holy Trinity, said the new
church will be an opportunity to
establish Anglican tradition in a
community that, despite numer-
ous houses of worship, has never
been home to an Anglican or
Episcopal church of its own.
