Chi-Rho Youth Group

What is Chi-Rho?

The Group Chi-Rho at DMPC is a safe space for youth to come together and grow in Christ through fun, fellowship, and faith-building activities.

The symbol known as Chi-Rho is one of the earliest symbols used by Christians. It is formed by superimposing the first two letters in the Greek spelling of the word Christ ( Greek : “Χριστός” ), chi = ch and rho = r, in such a way to produce the symbol.   Although not technically a cross, the Chi Rho invokes the crucifixion of Jesus as well as symbolizing his status as the Christ.
