Our Shared Vision

  • We are committed to gathering in worship as a community which will inspire us to have a deeper connection to Christ and to be transformed by His presence.
  • We will have a deeply connected, active, and engaged membership – one that is called and empowered by Christ to give and receive support to one another at every stage in life.
  • We want everybody in our community to know that Christ is open, welcoming, and accepting of all people, which inspires us to be a church that is open, welcoming, and accepting of all people.
  • We will discover how Christ is calling us to act beyond ourselves in our community.
  • We will be a church investing in children and youth where they will be spiritually and relationally connected because of the message of Christ’s indispensable grace.
  • We will be a church that experiences and becomes the peace of Christ so that we can enter into the suffering of an often-chaotic world to bring hope.

We are a Community of People

Christ Lutheran Church is a community of loving people.  Yes, we are a church, and we are focused on caring for one another,  strengthening relationships and exercise Jesus's commandment to "Love One Another".

Worship is a critical part of our ministry, and engaging in one of the many ministries  @ CLC allows us to grow in our faith and make a difference in our family life and connections with our community.
