Our Mission Statement: We journey through life and faith together:
† Claimed by God through our baptism. † Met by God in Christ through our Core Values.
† Called by God to serve. † Sent by God into the world. |
Our "CORE VALUES" at Holy Cross:
Worship
Gathering around Word and Sacrament provides a regular rhythm through which we encounter the risen Christ.. We give praise and thanksgiving to God for blessings received in music, prayer and spoken word.
Learning...
Our Christ-centered preaching and
teaching help us to integrate our faith with daily life and instill that faith in our children.
Prayer...
We know the power of prayer to strengthen, guide and comfort.
We pray regularly for the church, the world and those in need.
Caring...
We walk together with Christ through times of joy and trouble. We support one another in times of need and are
strengthened through the mutual encouragement of others.
Fellowship...
We share a sense of family and community in our relationships with God and one another, which nurture
our journey through life and faith.
Giving...
We are grateful stewards of the gifts God has first given us: our selves, our time and our possessions. In response to
God's gracious love, we give gladly to make Christ known.
Serving...
We are a community of faith active in love. We seek to meet our neighbors' needs, sharing the love we
have always been shown by Him.
Our Vision Statement:
To be a community of faith where
people are inspired and equipped for a journey of living lives centered in Christ.
