Sam leaves next week for his sophomore year in the Corp of Cadets at Virginia Tech, Will enters his senior year at Bluffton High School and Rachel will be a junior. Our three youngest, Katie, Josiah, and Fielding, are all a part of Cross Schools.
It’s been a particularly exciting time for Lisa and I watching what is happening at Cross these last two years. The Head of School, Dr. Brad Schultz, has brought an energy and innovation that has electrified this community. In the last two years we have seen 52% growth, a 98% retention rate and every grade has at least two classes. We have added multiple sports and a new football program headed by our first coach, former NFL All-Pro Linebacker for the Atlanta Falcons, Mr. Keith Brooking. If you want to see how excited the kids are to play for him, watch this video.
Watching up close what God is doing I feel we are on the edge of something borderline phenomenal. So much of this has been possible because many of you sacrificed to see this happen. Through you, we have lit a candle by God’s grace in Bluffton as I trust shall never shall be put out.
Get Involved with Our Ministries
One of the most important ways to get connected at The Church of the Cross is to first become a member of our congregation. If you are not a member and you are interested in learning more about membership, please call the Parish Office (843.757.2661) and speak to Sue.
Membership begins with an informal meeting with clergy. The next step in getting connected would be joining a Bible Study or small group to be in community with other Believers.
