ABOUT US
On January 10, 1954, we held our first service in a church facility at 49th and Peoria. The present church was built in 1967 and enlarged in 1994. Harold E. Brockhoff served the congregation as its first pastor from 1954 until his retirement in 1994. Our current pastor, Scott Burmeister, was called to Christ the Redeemer and was installed on June 30, 2013.
Our Traditional worship times are 8:15 AM Communion 1st & 3rd Sunday and 10:45 AM Communion 2nd & 4th Sunday in the CTR Sanctuary. Communion is offered at both services on 5th Sundays.
Our Modern worship service time is 12:15 PM and meets in Fellowship West.
Christ the Redeemer Lutheran Church is a fellowship of Christians & a member congregation of the Lutheran Church, Missouri Synod.
We at Christ The Redeemer Lutheran Church of Tulsa, Oklahoma are dedicated to Leading People into a Living Relationship with Jesus Christ.
Our Leadership Team
Our leadership team recognizes the authority of God, and realizes that we are shepherds who serve under the Chief Shepherd, Jesus Christ. We desire to devote ourselves to prayer and to the ministry of the Word. Our passion and goal is to equip the believers for the work of the ministry until we all attain maturity in the fullness of Christ.
