The Episcopal Churches Of Cunningham Chapel Parish

809 Bishop Meade Rd (Route 255)
540-837-1112

In 1892 we outgrew our chapel known as "Old Chapel" and built Christ Church in the relatively new village of Millwood. During this period, nearly every Episcopal church from the southern end of the Shenandoah Valley into what is now West Virginia was established by the Rt. Rev. William Meade, third Bishop of Virginia, and fifth rector of our parish. The parish was named "Frederick," for the county from which it was formed in 1733. One of our many missions, Christ Church in Winchester, requested the Frederick Parish name when they became independent, and we gave it to them and re-named ourselves Cunningham Chapel Parish.
