A Community of Faith

Christ Lutheran Church has a long history of Lutheran Christianity in the Great Kills neighborhood of Staten Island. Beginning in 1925 in the old firehouse on Hillside Terrace, to our current beautiful church grounds built in 1953, this congregation has always supported one another throughout our lives. CLC is a wonderful community-based church filled with many levels of enrichment to offer. If you or someone you know is looking to learn more on becoming a member, please call the church office for more information.
