WELCOME TO HOLY CROSS LUTHERAN CHURCH!
WE INVITE YOU TO JOIN US FOR WORSHIP.
July 19, 2026 - 10am Worship
This Week: The Weeds
For the next few weeks of Ordinary Time in the Lectionary, we will explore Jesus' teachings through his parables. Using ordinary cultural settings and situations in Biblical times in his parables, Jesus illustrates what it looks like to be a follower of Jesus. Some parables will be taken from Luke and others from Matthew's gospel. As you listen, read and reflect on them each week, you are invited to explore their meaning in your own life. You might ask yourself, How do I feel about this story? Who or what do I identify with? Does this parable challenge me and if so, how?
Holy Cross Lutheran Church welcomes all who are seeking God’s grace and love in an open and affirming congregation. We welcome people of all sexual orientations, gender identities, and gender expressions; of every race, ethnicity, and culture; and of every socio-economic situation. We are committed to racial equity and our doors are open to all regardless of religious background, age, abilities, or life experiences. We affirm the sacredness of all those who have experienced exclusion, whether by family, church, or society. We are a Reconciling in Christ Community. You are most welcome here.
