The Cridge Centre for the Family is British Columbia's oldest registered non-profit society and has a rich history. Our founders Bishop Edward Cridge and his wife Mary were outstanding pioneers of Victoria. Cridge came out to Victoria as Chaplain of the Hudson's Bay Company in 1855. He opened Christ Church, the first Anglican church in B.C., later becoming its Dean. In 1874, with a large number of Victoria pioneers, he formed a new congregation. The Church of Our Lord www.churchofourlord.org opened its doors in January 1876, Cridge having become a bishop of the Reformed Episcopal Church. Cridge is sometimes described as Victoria's first social worker. Along with his wife Mary, he pioneered many social and cultural causes in the city. He took the initiative which led to the creation of the Royal Jubilee Hospital. His wife Mary, with others, took in orphan children which led to the founding of the BC Protestant Orphan's Home in 1873. An anti-racist and champion of education, Cridge served as the first superintendent of education and his wife taught the first Sunday school. Cridge was also an excellent cellist and promoted the musical life of the city. This remarkable and much-loved couple celebrated their golden wedding anniversary in 1904. Mary Cridge died in 1905; Cridge himself in 1913 at the age of 96. One of the many citizens of Victoria who supported the Home was John George Taylor. This retired policeman and former gold prospector demonstrated his spirit of compassion by leaving his entire fortune to the Home when he died in 1891. His generous bequest enabled the organization to buy a beautiful property and build a new 100-bed orphanage.
