We are Relevant!
Welcome Statement:
At Holy Cross Lutheran Church, we believe we are called to be the light of the world; a light which dispels the darkness of hatred, prejudice, and selfishness. While we all share God’s amazing love and grace, we celebrate our differences; differences in sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, race, abilities, age, and social status.
Projecting God’s light beyond the doors of Holy Cross is our mission. We are called to be the hands and feet of Jesus as we actively live the commandment to love our neighbor as ourselves; to seek social and economic justice and combat all forms of racism and discrimination.
All are welcome: you, just as you are. Holy Cross is a safe space to be fully known and loved. Each with your unique, God-given talents will be a blessing to our congregation and community.
Please contact our RIC team below if you have any questions. Someone will get back to you as soon as possible.
A note from our bishop
As bishop of this church, I am concerned that the rights of transgender and nonbinary Americans have been targeted all over this nation. Nearly 400 anti-LGBTQIA+ bills were introduced across the United States in 2022, most of them targeting trans youth. That is twice the number from 2021 and almost eight times the total from 2020. The language in many of these bills attacks the humanity of trans and nonbinary people, often erasing the dignity that should be afforded to everyone. (Read the rest using the link below.)
