Church of the Cross Weekly News & Updates

Sing for Unity originates from the choir Female Singers, based in the small coastal town of Ebeltoft, Denmark. What began as a small idea and a heartfelt wish to unite and come together in solidarity has grown into a global movement, - inviting communities, choirs, friends and singers around the world to raise their voices together for unity, community, and hope.


Join us on September 20, 2 pm at Church of the Cross to use our voices in unity with others. This will also be Dr. Robert K's last day at Church of the Cross. We wish him luck on stepping into a new venture at Lutheran Church of the Atonement. We will miss him!
