Church Description:

Christ The King Friday Harbor (CTK) is an established congregation on San Juan Island off the coast of western Washington. Our church exists to be an authentic community of Christ-followers that loves God wholeheartedly and serves one another and the broader San Juan Island community.

While our congregation is small (with 30 - 40 active members), we have members from various demographics and Christian faith traditions. The circumstances of the last two years have led us to a deeper reliance on God through prayer. Many of us seek God, asking to hear from the Spirit together and in our personal lives.

We have recently transitioned from a pastor-led to a board-led church willing to free up the pastor for ministry. With this transition, we seek to learn how to work together as a body participating in the work of serving the San Juan Island Community.
