William White
The Reverend William White served as rector of
Christ Church and chaplain to the Continental
Congress. In 1787 he was the second bishop consecrated for the Episcopal Church in the United
States and the first bishop in Pennsylvania.

Soaring nearly 200 feet above you, Christ Church’s wooden steeple beckoned early travelers to Philadelphia and served as a familiar landmark to residents. Built between 1727 and 1754, originally as a parish of the Church of England, Christ Church has witnessed the growth of Philadelphia from a colonial town to a modern city of millions.
In the 1770s representatives to the Continental Congress worshipped alongside local artisans and laborers. As the question of independence from Great Britain intensified, the clergy faced uncertainty—honor their ordination oath to “bear faith and true allegiance to the King’s Highness” or sever ties with the Church of England. The clergy, congregation, and colony stood divided.
Through many of these tumultuous years, Rector William White guided the congregation through the revolution and into the new republic. After the war, White led the effort to establish the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America.
For almost three centuries Christ Church’s congregation has worshipped in the building before you. Although it is part of Independence National Historical Park, Christ Church remains independent. The church continues to serve the neighborhood as an active Episcopal congregation.
Christ Church “Whereas the honorable Continental Congress have resolved to declare the American Colonies to be free and independent states . . . it will be proper to omit those petitions from the liturgy wherein the King of
Great Britain is prayed for.”
Christ Church Vestry Minutes, July 4, 1776
