Worship at Christ Evangelical Lutheran Church is centered on Christ and the gifts He gives to His people. Our Sunday worship service is called the Divine Service, a historic and biblical pattern of worship in which God comes to serve us through His Word and Sacraments. Our services follow the historic Lutheran liturgy. In each service you will hear readings from the Bible, join in prayer and confession, sing hymns, and hear a sermon that proclaims Jesus Christ crucified and risen for the forgiveness of sins.

Our music reflects our rich Lutheran heritage. We sing time-honored hymns that clearly confess the faith and proclaim Christ’s saving work, accompanied by the organ and often supported by our choir and handbell choir. The liturgy provides a steady and reverent rhythm to our worship, guiding us through God’s promises in an orderly and meaningful way. A printed bulletin helps everyone follow along easily, whether you have attended Lutheran worship for years or are visiting for the first time. For a more detailed explanation of the Divine Service, please see The Divine Service: A Guide.

Holy Communion is celebrated each week and is Christ’s true body and blood, given for the forgiveness of sins. In this Sacrament, our Lord comes to us personally with His grace and mercy, strengthening us in faith and love. Because the Lord’s Supper is both a precious gift and a confession of shared faith, we practice closed communion in keeping with the teaching of the Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod. Guests who have questions are warmly invited to speak with the pastor before the service.
