More details

Christ Lutheran is a joyful part of the Delaware/Maryland Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America (ELCA), whose mission is to proclaim the good news of God's unconditional love in Jesus Christ. We recognize that we can reach farther with the message by walking together on the journey!
