Making Christ Known

Our mission of "Making Christ Known" is witnessed throughout Christ Lutheran Church. Whether it is our exciting and spiritual youth programs, WELCA (our women's group), small group studies, fun and fellowship, or community service, CLC provides something for everyone to Make Christ Known...

What HAVE we done?!?!

Property Work Day: About 15 energetic people came to help fill dirt by the front entrance, weed the flower beds, divide plants and plant flowers, mulch, trim the bushes, and edge the beds on Saturday morning, April 19.
