Holy Cross had its roots in the 1950s. Families moving west yearned for a church home and began meeting in one another’s homes to build community. Several of those founding members remain active today.
The Evangelical Lutheran Church established Holy Cross Lutheran Church in 1959 and the first service was held at Hadley Junior High School with 102 people attending. The original building on Geneva Road was erected in 1959 and is known today as the Gathering Place. An educational wing was added in 1964. By 1974, increased membership prompted the building of the present sanctuary. Because of continued growth, a building program was completed in March of 1990, giving us additional education areas, fellowship facilities and office space. Our sanctuary and new facility are entirely handicap accessible.
