"Christ Church is an historic church located at Melendy Road and US Route 5 in
Guilford, Vermont in the United States. Built in 1817, it was the first
Episcopal Church in Vermont and was part of the Episcopal Diocese of
Massachusetts until the Episcopal Diocese of Vermont was created in 1832.
On May 13, 1982, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places.
Christ Church ceased to be an active parish of the Episcopal Diocese of Vermont
before the 1900s, but has never been deconsecrated and is still used
occasionally for Episcopal church services. It has been restored and is now
maintained by the Christ Church Guilford Society which uses it primarily as a
venue for musical and other cultural events as well as weddings and civil
unions." -
