LOOK WHO’S COMING FOR DINNER! Or lunch, or tea time, or game time! I have enjoyed getting to know you all here at Christ Lutheran, but I would like to get to know you even more! So, I decided to invite myself over (not really...). Starting this month, a sign-up calendar (for July, August and September) will be available on the bulletin board where you can choose a date to invite me over for a visit and we can get to know each other better! Choose a date and a time of day - if you'd like to have me over for dinner, lunch, or just a chat, please make a note about that on the calendar. If, for whatever reason, you'd like to meet outside of your home, mark that on the calendar as well, and we can discuss alternatives. Or you can call the office to sign up over the phone. I am looking forward to it! Pastor Phil
Let's read through the Gospel of Mark together!
Join the Christ Lutheran community in daily readings through this fast-paced and straight-to-the-point Gospel throughout the Summer. Every day of the week, there will be a passage to read and every week, a chapter of Mark to study (you can read at your desired pace). Then, hear a sermon on the chapter you read the previous week every Sunday and Wednesday night. Even while away on vacation, you can be connected to Christ Lutheran by studying God's word alongside one another. This sermon series kicked off on May 25th and will finish on August 31st.
COMMUNITY GARDEN has been planted but your help is needed to keep it weeded and watered. A sign up sheet is posted on the bulletin board for weekly volunteering.
YOUNG ADULT BIBLE STUDY/GAME NIGHT for youth entering their senior year in high school through college age (young 20’s) beginning Sunday, June 1st at 7 pm at Pastor Phil’s house and continuing on Sunday evenings throughout the summer. Please come and bring your friends.
KICKBALL IS BACK! Wednesdays starting July 9th at 6:30pm​.​ Children and adults of all ages are invited to join us for some fellowship and Blooper Ball/Kickball fun. This is totally not competitive, but is a ton of fun and a great time to get to know other members of the congregation. If you don’t want to play, come on out any way. We could always use some cheerleaders.
MUSICIAN NEEDED for Sunday School beginning in the fall. It can be piano, keyboard, guitar, etc. If you or someone you know might be interested, please let Kelly or the office know.

Christ Lutheran Church Welcomes YOU
On behalf of the entire congregation here at Christ Evangelical Lutheran Church in Reese, Michigan we want to take this opportunity to thank you for visiting our website. We are a church that believes in the life changing power of Jesus Christ, and do our best to share His love both at church and in our community, we are privileged to serve.
If you are looking for a “perfect church,” then I encourage you to click away quickly because we’re not that church, yet we are doing our best to become more like our Lord and Savior every single day. Sometimes we fail, but we believe in learning from those failures and moving forward in faith and victory!
We want to encourage you to take a look at the various links on our site and become acquainted with us, and then join us for worship services!
We like to call our website our “Online Visitor’s Packet” because it’s such a great way for prospective guests to see what we’re all about before actually walking through the doors!
Lives are being changed here at Christ Lutheran Church, and it’s to the honor and glory of Jesus Christ! We are all different, and while we have distinctive needs and situations in our lives, we believe He is more than up to the task of meeting those needs!
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us through our online contact information, or give us a call at the church at 989-868-3281 and we will do our best to answer your question(s)!
I want to encourage you to put the Lord first in your life and see what God can do through you! Matthew 6:33 “But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.”
May you have a blessed pilgrimage with Christ serving His creation.
