Christ Lutheran Cemetery is located between Cisco and Rising Star, Texas, just west of U.S. Highway 183. From Cisco, travel south on U.S. Highway 183 for approximately four miles; from Rising Star, travel north on U.S. Highway 183 for approximately 14.5 miles. At County Road 181, turn west, travel approximately 1.1 miles, then turn south, or left, onto County Road 169 and proceed for .6 mile. The cemetery is located on the east, or left, side of the road.
 

In July 1986, a monument was dedicated at the cemetery site commemorating Christ Lutheran Church. The monument stands on the exact spot where Christ Lutheran Church's altar stood. The original Christ Lutheran Church cornerstone is in the monument and it is inscribed with "1906". The inscription on the plaque reads:

"Christ Lutheran Church organized in 1904 under the leadership of the Rev. G. G. Mueller. From 1904 to 1944 the Church maintained a Christian Day School. In 1965 Christ and Grace Lutheran Churches combined to form Redeemer Lutheran Church in Cisco."
