Why Holy Cross?

We are so excited! We are officially a RIC church. This means we welcome LGBTQIA+ and name our commitment to anti-racism.

Worship

Our welcome begins with Holy Communion! We celebrate an open table, meaning you do not need to be Lutheran or a member of our congregation to receive Holy Communion.

We welcome all ages, races, cultures, gender identities, sexual orientations, life experiences, life complexities, and questions.

2024 Fall Sermon Themes, "Creation - Judges"

This weekend – October 19-20 “God’s Promise to David”

To prepare for service read 1 Samuel 1:9-11, 19-20; 2:1-10

Today, we are bid to consider where God lives, not only in our lives but in us. David’s offer of a renovation project is rebuffed, and God reaffirms who God is for us.

When your days are fulfilled and you lie down with your ancestors, I will raise up your offspring after you, who shall come forth from your body, and I will establish his kingdom. He shall build a house for my name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom forever.
(2 Samuel 7:12-13)
