Christ Lutheran Church began as a mission congregation of the Lutheran
Church Missouri Synod in the 1920's. Its purpose was to serve the
people in the eastern suburbs of Pittsburgh, PA. It was originally
called the Ardmore Lutheran Mission located in a rented storeroom on
Sumner Avenue in Forest Hills. Christ Lutheran Evangelical Lutheran church later moved
to a site on Atlantic Avenue. In 1949 two and a half acres of ground on
Barclay Ave. was purchased for our present building. In 1989 an
educational wing was added and the school moved into the new area. Since
its incorporation in 1933, that mission and commitment has not
changed. A traditional service is provided on Sunday mornings at 10:00 a.m.
Sunday
school education is provided for children from aged 0 years through
high school. A
number of adult study groups meet throughout the week and on Sunday
mornings which provide that extra fellowship on a more personal basis.
Christ
Lutheran is serious about the church’s mandate to be a blessing to
others. Areas of work include a prayer team, blind ministry, elder
care, soup kitchen/clothing ministry, discretionary fund, and more.
The
mission of Christ Lutheran Church is bringing lives together in Christ,
through stability in God's Word and Sacraments and variety in
education, fellowship, and service.
