The Fifth Week of Lent
Dearly beloved members of Christ Lutheran Church,
We continue to struggle through the CV-19 pandemic, and yet life in our Congregation continues, albeit in a much different way than to that which we have become accustomed. All of our services are taking place (Sundays and Wednesdays during Lent) via video. The video is sent out via eNews each Sunday and Wednesday and is always available on our Church Facebook Platform.
Additionally Pastor records a nightly devotion and sends them out between 8 and 9pm each evening. He had begun doing this before the CV19 crisis. They are also available on the Facebook platform. You can go directly to the Church page by clicking here. You can view the videos without belonging to Facebook, however you can get much more information, including daily updates if you do subscribe. Just follow the information on this link. Right now, because of bandwidth requirements, we are unable to upload to YouTube as we have done in the past. Since so many churches are streaming, it is very difficult to upload to YouTube. Facebook is kind enough to allow our church unlimited uploading capability during the CV19 crisis. Tune in - listen to the devotion, and be blessed!
Unfortunately, the mandate of "not meeting" has been extended to April 30 by our government. This means that we will miss celebrating Holy Week together in person. However, we will conduct services. Here is the Holy Week Schedule for Christ Lutheran Church:
PALM SUNDAY, APRIL 5, 2020

Christ Evangelical-Lutheran Church is a member congregation of the Atlantic District of the Lutheran Church- Missouri Synod. We have been faithfully proclaiming the Word of God and administering the Sacraments in the Moriches/ Mastic/ Manorville areas for over a half-century.
Our congregation gathers for Word and Sacrament Ministry each Saturday Evening at 5:30pm and Sunday mornings at 8am and 11am, and during the summer June through and including Labor Day, one Service at 10am. The Holy Eucharist is celebrated at each service in accordance with the Lutheran Confessions. We utilize the Lutheran Service Book and the English Standard Version of the Bible during worship. We also have a Midweek Matins service each Wednesday (October through May) at 12 Noon. During Advent and Lent we also have Midweek Evening Services on Wednesdays at 7:00 pm.
We are a liturgical church, but that doesn't mean worship is irrelevant, staid or boring. Quite the contrary- it is fresh, renewed and reinforces the faith in Jesus, held by the Church since the time of the Apostles.
If you are not a member of a congregation and are in the area, we encourage you to visit us, ask questions, speak with the Pastor, and become a member of our Fellowship.
