In 2008, Rev. Dr. Bill Steinberg, having been an ordained Minister for 20 years, announced he was leaving the Episcopal Church to form a new congregation in Fuquay-Varina under the leadership of the Anglican Mission in the Americas (AMiA). Steadfastly committed to the authority of Scripture, Rev. Steinberg was drawn by the Three Steams of the AMiA: Scripture, Sacred, and Spirit, while also attracted by the commitment to the global Mission as it originated from Rwanda. The AMiA provided the leadership under which the congregation could remain connected to the worldwide Anglican Communion, retaining the ancient history and liturgy of the Anglican church, while authentically worshiping and boldly teaching God’s Word.  Claiming the new life that Jesus promises to all those who believe, The Church of the Resurrection was born.

Therefore, at The Church of the Resurrection,

We are…

A Community of Christian Believers of all ages and backgrounds, coming together in weekly worship, regular fellowship, and on-going service.  You will find at CTR genuine warmth and welcome, and you will find a love that is not just talked about, it is a love that is shown.

We are…

An emerging AMiA Anglican congregation.  We stand with Christians today, through the ages, and around the world who uphold one faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior of all, who live under the authority of Scripture as the inspired and infallible Word of God, and whose service is empowered by the Holy Spirit.

We are…

We are…

Directly connected to the Anglican Church in SouthEast Asia and Rwanda. The Anglican Mission in America (AMiA or theAM) was born when key leaders of the Anglican Church in Africa and Asia responded to a crisis of faith and leadership in the western church, establishing the Anglican Mission as a groundbreaking intervention.  As a missionary outreach of the Province of the Anglican Church of Rwanda, theAM enjoys the oversight of Archbishop-Elect Onesphore Rwaje of Rwanda and the Rwandan House of Bishops.

We are…

Committed to service in ways that fulfill our mission to experience newness in living through a relationship with Jesus Christ, encourage each other in our journey in Christ, and to extend the goodness of God to others.  We serve Inside our Congregation with our Children’s Ministry (REZKIDZ), Youth Group ("The RATL"), Sound and Worship Team, "Heavenly Helpers", Prayer Team, Small Groups, and Parish Life; and we serve Beyond our Walls through the It’s In The Bag Ministry, Sister-to-Sister, Samaritan’s Purse, and Vacation Bible School.
