It was not until 1970 that the chapel congregation was declared an independent parish and construction of the current church began. The foundation stone for the church was laid on August 23, 1970. On the 1st of Advent 1971 it was named "Christ Church" and given its purpose. Since it became too small again, it was rebuilt and expanded between 1994 and 1995.
