Welcome to Worship Christ Evangelical Lutheran Church (CELC) is a congregation of the Northeastern Ohio Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA), a part of the worldwide Lutheran community. We invite you to join us regularly for worship and in a variety of activities and opportunities in our congregational life. If you are new here, we welcome you; if you are a member of long standing, we celebrate your gifts and ministry. Holy Communion The sacrament of Holy Communion is celebrated each week at CELC. All are welcome to receive this gift of God’s grace, love, and forgiveness. All who hunger to know the love of God are welcome to commune with us. The table of our Lord is set for all those who need grace, forgiveness, strength, and wisdom for ministry and mission to the world. If you have questions about the sacrament, or if you wish to receive instruction on the Christian faith, you are invited to speak with Pastor Jeff following the service.

CELC Preschool Monday-Friday 9: 00 a. m. -3: 00 p. m. Christ Lutheran Preschool is a Five Star Step Up to Quality Award winner. The highest rating! This means that our program exceeds the state requirements for a licensed preschool. We have smaller student to teacher ratios than is required, all of our highly educated teachers take extra training classes each year and our lesson plans reflect the state’s preschool academic standards. We incorporate prayer, Jesus’ love for us and the well known stories from the Bible including Creation, Noah’s Ark and the birth of Jesus into our Kindergarten readiness curriculum.
