The CLC is closed on Saturdays. In addition, it is closed the week of VBS and the first full week of August.

Our indoor walking track is for adults of all ages and physical abilities. Open whenever the Christian Life Center (CLC) is open to the public, the walking track offers a safe, climate-controlled place to walk all year round. It is located on the second floor and is accessible by stairs or elevator. Come alone or bring a friend to walk and talk.
