Note:
See http://www.christchurchecity.org/our-church/st-philips-chapel for the history of the chapel and its relationship with Christ Episcopal Church. St. Phillip’s originally stood at 512 S. Martin St. where it was built as a mission for black residents by Christ Episcopal Church. It was moved a few blocks in 2001 to its present site across the street from Christ Episcopal Church, which owns it.
