Cross of Christ Lutheran Church
As a fellowship of believers, it is our mission to joyfully proclaim the gospel of Christ in word and deed, inviting people to worship together, nurturing them in the Christian faith, loving one another, and serving a world in need. We invite you to visit us.
This church bell originally hung in St. Peter's bell tower on Grant Street. (now the Early Childhood building) It is well over 100 years old. Kind of cool as we celebrate our nation's 250th.

🙏 Labor Day Prayer
Dear God,
On this Labor Day, we lift up all whose hands and hearts sustain the world.
Bless the workers who rise early, who care for others, who build and mend, who teach and tend, who imagine and create.
Bless those whose labor is quiet and unseen, and those whose work is heavy and wearying.
Grant rest to the tired, dignity to the overlooked, fairness to the burdened, and hope to all who seek good work. Make our communities places where every vocation is honored and every person is valued as your beloved child.
Guide us to use our gifts with compassion, to serve one another with joy, and to remember that in all our striving, we are held in your grace.
In Christ, we pray.
Amen.
Freedom of Religion
As we celebrate our country's 250th anniversary, we are reminded of how blessed we are to have "Freedom of Religion" in the First Amendment.
Freedom of religion means every person has the right to hold, change, practice, or reject any religious belief — without interference or coercion from the government or anyone else.
🌿 Core Meaning
-
You may believe what you choose — any religion, many religions, or none at all.
-
You may change your beliefs at any time.
-
You may practice your faith through worship, teaching, rituals, symbols, and community life.
-
You may decline to participate in religious activities or reject religion entirely.
This freedom protects both internal belief (your private convictions, which cannot be restricted) and external expression (your public practice, which can only be limited in rare cases such as protecting public safety).
