Lutheran Church of the Cross and Aliso Viejo Church of the Cross are a Christ-centered, Bible-believing fellowship of disciples: ...rooted within the one, historical Christian Church which finds its center in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ; grounded on the Word of God, the Bible; and kindred in Spirit with evangelical ("sent" into the world in witness and service to Christ and His Word) expressions of local congregations and the world-wide family of Christ.
