What We Believe

Cross of Glory is a redeveloping congregation, serving a relatively diverse group of people in communities southwest of Chicago. We combine traditional Lutheran theology with a contemporary worship and an increasing commitment to our neighbors and community.

As a Reconciling in Christ congregation, we are very intentional about welcoming our LGBTQ brothers and sisters. But since God’s welcome extends to everyone, so does ours — regardless of  race, age, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, economic status, life circumstances or anything else that separates people.

Everyone is welcome at Cross of Glory. In our world of fear and division, places like Cross of Glory are really needed.
