Save the date:

  • Memorial and Celebration of Life for Marcus Dahn:  A Memorial Service honoring long time CLC member, Dr. Marcus Dahn, who passed from this life last December, will be held for family, church family, and friends, on Saturday, July 2, at 1:00pm at Christ Lutheran.   Pastor Chad will officiate.   Coffee and cookies will be served. Because Marcus very much loved music and dancing, in true Liberian fashion, the Dahn family intends to celebrate his 69 years on this earth, by hosting a party Marcus would have enjoyed.   Following the Memorial service, you are invited to Arts West, on W.
