Lutheran Church of the Cross, Laguna Woods Campus

Our Values...
The Word of God
2 Timothy 3:16, All Scripture is God-breathed, and useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness. We rely on a traditional and historical understanding of Holy Scripture. God's Word is the absolute standard and authority on which we live out our lives.

Worship & Prayer
Psalm 95:6-7, Come, let us bow down and worship. Let us kneel before the Lord our Maker; for He Is our God and we are the people of His pasture, the flock under His care. We bring honor to God, promoting the fellowship of believers through varied forms of worship and prayer.

Christian Education
2 Peter 3:18, Grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be glory, now and forever. We have been called to offer Christian education and faith formation for all ages in our schools, church campuses and homes.

Evangelism & Missions
Matthew 28:18-20, Then Jesus came to them and said, ‘All authority in heaven and earth has been given to me. Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you, to the very end of the age.” We strive to serve our community and beyond to fulfill our commitment to Jesus Christ. We are a "Great Commission” church.

Community Acts 2:42
They devoted themselves to the apostles teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. We desire to live this text! We exist to encourage one another in our walk with the Lord Jesus through fellowship and discipleship opportunities on our church campuses and in our homes.

Heritage
Ephesians 2:8-9, For it is 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. We honor our Lutheran foundation in the continuing development of our church life.
