Mount Cross Evangelical Lutheran Church's mission is to rejoice, renew and reach out in the name of Jesus. Located across from the Curtis Junior High School campus, the church dates to 1958, when its first congregation included 200 members. Today, it has approximately 430 members and also operates a preschool.
The church is planning a $2.5 million renovation project that includes a new sanctuary. It will seat approximately 250 to 300 people, and it will include a choir space and music room.
