who we are
Chi (kī, χ) and Rho (rō, ρ) are two Greek letters that together are one of the earliest symbols of the gathered Christian Church. The symbol the letters create refer to the Greek word for Christ, or Messiah (Χριστός, Christós).
Chi Rho exists to point all people to Jesus. We celebrate the Great Tradition of the gathered church while simultaneously being sent to serve in our neighborhoods and the world. Chi Rho holds as its highest value the making of disciples through authentic community.
Church is not about a place, but a people – all people. At Chi Rho, we embrace the messiness of lives being transformed. We spend a lot of time doing life together, often around a dining table or gathered with good food and beverage in a living room.
Chi Rho Community was “planted” in the Coeur d’Alene, Idaho area by New Community Church of Spokane in the fall of 2011 and is affiliated with Communitas International.
