Millwood, VA 22646
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.
