WELCOME to St. Christopher's Cathedral Website

Jesus said:  The first commandment is:   Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.  The second is this, Love your neighbour as yourself.  There is no commandment greater than these."  (St. Mark 12:29,30)

Who's Who

Our church aims to welcome everyone in the name of Jesus Christ whether you are a visitor to Bahrain  or a permanent resident.  
The Cathedral provides a haven of peace and tranquillity on an island where pilgrims and travellers  from around the world may pause for a while.     St. Christopher's seeks to help you find spiritual refreshment and peace of mind in a world, often destabilized by conflict and confusion.  Whether your preference is for quiet meditation, reflection or worship with fellow Christians, life at St. Christopher's is a diverse mix of   nationalities, ages and interests bound together by the respect and pastoral care we find for each other in God's love for us all
