This church bell originally hung in St. Peter's bell tower on Grant Street. (now the Early Childhood building) It is well over 100 years old. Kind of cool as we celebrate our nation's 250th.

The Beginning of Cross of Christ
The photo to the left was donated by Rosaaen Skifton Olson. Rosaaen and I remember this scene well because for a few years, this project monopolized many, of what would eventually be, Cross of Christ members lives. As we do extensive maintenance on our treasured stain glass windows, it seems like a good time to say thanks to those folks who made this beautiful building a reality.
We raised $107,000 to redo the windows. The total cost of the original building was $209,805.20. The groundbreaking took place April 26, 1959, and the dedication was August 28, 1960. Quite an accomplishment for a small congregation!

Matthew 10:24-39
New International Version
24 “The student is not above the teacher, nor a servant above his master. 25 It is enough for students to be like their teachers, and servants like their masters. If the head of the house has been called Beelzebul, how much more the members of his household!
26 “So do not be afraid of them, for there is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, or hidden that will not be made known. 27 What I tell you in the dark, speak in the daylight; what is whispered in your ear, proclaim from the roofs. 28 Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell. 29 Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground outside your Father’s care.[a] 30 And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. 31 So don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.
32 “Whoever acknowledges me before others, I will also acknowledge before my Father in heaven. 33 But whoever disowns me before others, I will disown before my Father in heaven.
34 “Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. 35 For I have come to turn
“‘a man against his father,
a daughter against her mother,
a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law—
36 a man’s enemies will be the members of his own household.’[b]
37 “Anyone who loves their father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves their son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. 38 Whoever does not take up their cross and follow me is not worthy of me. 39 Whoever finds their life will lose it, and whoever loses their life for my sake will find it.
