Holy Cross
Orthodox Christian Church A Mission Community of the Diocese of the Midwest--The Orthodox Church in
America
The ancient Christian Church is still alive today!
This is the Church which
was established by Jesus Christ Himself. This is the Church whose holy Apostles spread the
message of Christ from Jerusalem to the ends of the world. This is the Church that
through the Great Ecumenical Councils gave us the New Testament and the Nicene Creed. This
is the Church of which Holy Cross is a part--from Jerusalem to Antioch, from Alexandria to
Constantinople and all the way to the American Midwest. You may click HERE or the box below

Church.
Worshiping
God in Spirit & Truth for nearly 2,000 years!
We're often asked by our
friends and neighbors what the Orthodox Church is like and, although we've tried to
describe it in many and various ways, we're always left at a loss for words. That's
because the Orthodox Church is unlike anything you've ever experienced. When the
representatives of a tenth-century ruler returned from their trip to an Orthodox Divine
Liturgy they observed to their king that, "We did not know whether we were in heaven
or on earth!" How does one put that experience into words that the average
Minnesotan can comprehend? We can't. That's why we say:
"Come &
See!"
There is really only one way to experience this ancient and
contemporary Orthodox Church in all its fullness and that is by being our guest for
worship this Sunday at 9:30AM. You'll find a warm welcome waiting for you
and, more importantly, an experience of worship that is wholly centered on God: the
Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. For additional information about us please
