Our Story
For over 155 years, The Cross Church has been part of the story of Wylie and beyond. What began in 1870 as a small rural gathering has grown into a thriving, multi-generational church reaching people locally and around the world. While names, buildings, and styles have changed over the years, one thing hasn’t: our passion to remove barriers and help people experience Jesus.


What We Believe
Our foundation is simple and clear:
- God: One God in three persons—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
- Jesus: Fully God and fully human, our Savior.
- The Bible: God’s true and authoritative Word.
- People: Created by God, in need of grace, offered new life through Jesus.
- The Church: A community of believers living out God’s mission together.
How We Live It Out
(The 4 G's)
We put our faith into action in four key ways:
- Gather: Worship that honors God and inspires people.
- Grow: Life change happens in community.
- Go: Sharing the hope of Jesus everywhere.
- Give: Investing our lives in what matters most.

A Place to Belong
Life isn’t meant to be lived alone. The Cross Church is a community where real relationships are built—people who encourage, challenge, and walk through life together. From weekend services to Growth Groups for every stage of life, there’s a place for you to connect and grow.
For Kids
& Students
We’re passionate about the next generation. Every weekend, kids and students experience engaging environments designed just for them—fun, high-energy, and rooted in truth. From early childhood through high school, we’re helping young people build a faith that lasts.
