Welcome to
CROSS LUTHERAN
CHURCH & SCHOOL
LOVE | WALK | GROW
Cross Lutheran is a vibrant and active family of faith in Yorkville, Illinois where people of all upbringings and identities can learn about and follow Jesus. All are welcome to join together on a mission as we Walk with God, Grow in Faith Together, and Love Our Neighbors.
We believe a follower of Jesus will mature as a disciple of Jesus through the intentional processes of spiritual formation and leadership multiplication. Jesus’ work on earth is not limited to a few people in a few places but is gifted to all believers in all places. At Cross we encourage and challenge each other to be in the presence of Jesus right where you are.
Current Sunday Sermon Series: The Word Became Flesh – Advent
The Word Became Flesh: this is the theme for Advent this year as we focus on the words and ways of Jesus. We celebrate what He has done and anticipate what He is doing. All the while, we participate in these works so the whole world can receive their gift at Christmas: the gift of life and faith through Jesus!
Week 1: Bread of Life: Jesus is born in Bethlehem, the House of Bread, to nourish and strengthen us in our faith, and feed us with His Word of truth to fill our lives.
Week 2: Salt of the Earth: Jesus calls us to flavor the earth, and to savor the good things that come from Him through His birth.
Week 3: Rock of Ages: Jesus is our rock, a solid foundation on which to build a life of joy.
Week 4: Light of the World: Jesus brightens our lives through His birth, dispelling the darkness of sin to bring forgiveness to light.
And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth (John 1:14).

For by grace you have been saved, through faith – and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God – not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works which God prepared in advance for us to do. Ephesians 2:8-10
