Excerpt from Free and Open Churches: A Sermon Preached at the Opening of the Chapel of Christ Church, Philadelphia The primordial law of nature, enacted by God for the welfare of the human race, the great fundamental law of the domestic constitution, increase and multiply, is also the primordial law of the Christian Church, that family of our Lord Jesus Christ of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named. It is a going forth, the outward, onward movement of the household of faith, sending out its colonies and its families, ever lengthening its cords, ever strengthening its stakes, ever stretching forth the curtains of its habitations.

Book Description
Excerpt from Memorial of the Two Hundredth Anniversary of the Founding of Christ Church, Philadelphia 1695-1895 Christ Church, Philadelphia, having its potential origin in the requirement of the charter of Pennsylvania granted by King Charles II to William Penn which provided for services of the Church of England, dates its actual beginning from 1695. On November 15th of that year, the ground was purchased on which stands the present church edifice. The purchase was made by Joshua Carpenter, who, in a deed dated July 20th following, "acknowledged and declared" that his name was used in the deeds of purchase by "the special nomination and appointment of the community of the said church, and for their use and benefit," and that part of the lot of land was intended for a cemetery or churchyard, and that the church and the premises were to be perpetually appropriated and used for the public worship of God, and for the better instruction of the people inhabiting and to inhabit in Philadelphia, in the one Christian religion as it is professed in the Church of England, and established by the laws of the realm, and to no other uses whatsoever. Services according to the Book of Common Prayer had already been begun; and churchmen appealed for their rights of worship. One of the leading spirits in the embyro congregation was Colonel Robert Quary, whose gift of altar vessels of silver is still constantly used in the parish. With encouragement from Francis Nicholson, Governor of Maryland, advance was made and the first church edifice was built of substantial brick. The movement attracted the attention of the Archbishop of Canterbury and the Bishop of London, and notably of the Rev. Thomas Bray, D. D., the earnest friend of the Anglican Church in the colonies.
