Welcome to Church of the Cross!

I trust you will feel as comfortable as I do at Church of the Cross. My family and I moved to Kettering in November of 1995. We discovered a gracious, hope filled people who are moving forward in their faith in Jesus Christ. Church of the Cross is a church of vision. Together, we are walking into God’s preferable future.

As pastor of Church of the Cross, I am devoted to revealing the truth of the holy scriptures. I know a personal relationship with God in Jesus Christ offers wholeness, freedom and joy. And I know as we grow in intimacy with the Spirit of Jesus,we share in the compassion of God for a hurting world.

So I invite you to join with me in becoming part of a healing community known as Church of the Cross. The presence and power of the Holy Spirit is here. Friendship is here for every adult, youth and child. May the relentless tenderness of Jesus be lavished upon you.

Blessings,
Pastor John Whitaker
