God’s Unconditional Love
In a world where it’s easy to become distracted, disillusioned, or detached, we connect with others by showing God’s unconditional love through inspiring worship, authentic community, and meaningful service.
Cross of Life is a vibrant Christian community of faith focused on proclaiming the Gospel of God’s grace to all people.
Serving Roswell, Milton, Alpharetta, and surrounding areas, we are a midsize church with members coming from across the U.S. and around the world. We are a congregation of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA).

I’M NEW
We know going to a new church for the first time can be intimidating, and we want to help make your first experience at Cross of Life a great one. Find out what to expect and have your questions answered.

WHAT WE BELIEVE
Welcome! We are glad you’re here, and we’d like to share a bit about us – from our mission and vision statement, to how we live out our mission, to a glimpse into what Lutherans believe.

GET INVOLVED
All are welcome to join in our ministries, groups, and events. Christian education, book club, Sunday school, musical groups, youth groups, and service opportunities – there is something for everyone!

AUTHENTIC
COMMUNITY
THE CHURCH ISN’T A BUILDING – IT’S PEOPLE
From teaching the faith to visiting the sick, from asking the tough faith questions to laughing at the Super Bowl Party, authentic Christian community takes many forms. Bound together by our faith in Christ Jesus, we are a diverse people with many different backgrounds, ethnicities, political views, economic and lifestyle demographics — yet we are all one in Christ. We come together to support one another in times of need, to grow in faith and discipleship, and to pass our faith to the next generation.

MEANINGFUL SERVICE

Jennifer
“We are committed to raising our sons in a church environment that is similar to our own childhoods. From children’s sermons and singing in the children’s choir, our kids love being included and finding their place in worship.”

Rocky
“I hear from our new members that one of the reasons they joined Cross of Life was because we have a friendly and welcoming congregation. I too have experienced that warm and welcoming personal friendship from our members. It reminds me of our call to love our neighbor as we love ourselves.”

Beth
“I love that Cross of Life encourages its members to reach out to others. There is a lot of need in our community and around the world, and it feels great to be able to fulfill our call to help.”
