Welcome!

Cross of Christ Lutheran Church exists to serve you and help connect you and everyone in Las Cruces to Jesus Christ and his good news.

Everything we do here at Cross of Christ is centered upon Christ Jesus. Jesus lived a perfect life for us, died an innocent death for us, and rose from the dead so that we too have eternal life with him forever. And God gives all of this as a free gift to all who believe!

This congregation began in 2012 with a small group of Christians gathering together in homes to worship God, grow in his Word, and carry out Christ's command to share the good news of what Jesus has done for all. God has richly blessed us over the years, and now, we are in the process of pursuing our own permanent location to be better able to connect you and many others in Las Cruces to Christ for years to come!

We love to build personal relationships with people because we always strive to reflect Christ, who has built a personal relationship with us. So we'd love to get to know you!

We're moving!

Current Location: El Paseo Rd & University Ave

We're building a church! 

We've been around in Las Cruces for over a decade, but we've been worshiping in rented spaces since our our church began. We recently purchased property on the corner of Sonoma Ranch Blvd and Central Ave on the northeast side of town, and we're hoping to begin construction on a new church building soon! 

Interested in checking out our church? We're still at our current location:
