Crisis Support is provided for people in diverse ways. The Clergy stand ready to provide pastoral care, counseling and sacramental ministry, and encourage people to call in times of need. Lay Eucharist Ministers take communion to shut-ins and those in hospitals. A Lay Pastoral Care group provides the support of a loving, listening presence to those with special need. Home Ministry brings meals to families where there is illness, offers sick-room supplies from a well-stocked storeroom at the church, and provides a gracious reception for friends and families after funerals. A Grief Support group meets monthly to offer support in dealing with losses of any type.

Women of Christ Church publish and sell Seasons, our church's cookbook. Profits from the sale of the book benefit Outreach, specifically Community Services Agency. The concept and organization of the book center on our glorious windows and their theme of following both the natural and liturgical seasons.

Outreach to the community is an important aspect of our ministry at Christ Church. Both financial and volunteer support are provided to Community Services Agency, Community Health Awareness Council, Friends Outside, Samaritan Counseling Center, Peninsula Habitat for Humanity, Episcopal Charities Appeal, Episcopal Chaplaincy at Stanford Hospital, and many others.

The Alpha Omega Rotating Homeless Shelter is at Christ Church for a month each year.

Votive Lights Prayer Chain and Order of St. Luke (Los Altos Chapter) are available to offer prayers and intercessions for healing.
