Holy Cross Anglican Church, Farragut, Tennessee

If there were any word of God beside the Scripture, we could never be certain of God's Word; and if we be uncertain of God's Word, the devil might bring in among us a new word, a new doctrine, a new faith, a new church, a new god, yea himself to be a god. If the Church and the Christian faith did not stay itself upon the Word of God certain, as upon a sure and strong foundation, no man could know whether he had a right faith, and whether he were in the true Church of Christ , or a synagogue of Satan."

ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY , THOMAS CRANMER, ON HOLY SCRIPTURE

In the Name of Christ, We bid you welcome!

swirl Who are we? Holy Cross Anglican Church is a community of faith that believes and professes the gospel of Jesus Christ in the living tradition of the traditional Anglican Church. Our spirituality is rooted in scripture, prayer, evangelism, celebration of the Eucharist and sharing in the sacramental life of the Church. Our theology and liturgical language is anchored in the Holy Bible and the 1928 Book of Common Prayer. We are mission church of the Anglican Province of America.

How do we worship? We utilize the 1928 edition of the Book of Common Prayer. This edition has prayers and affirmations of faith going back to the beginning of our Christian existence, as well as the traditional Anglican liturgy. This beautiful liturgy has been in continuous use since it was first published over 455 years ago. During the service the congregation actively participates in the service through prayer, music, listening to God's word and sharing in the Eucharist.

Our Community - Holy Cross Anglican Church is dedicated to the service of God and to support of one another in our Christian life together. Service opportunities exist to work, learn, and play together as a family in Christ, in addition to our worship services that are offered.

If Holy Cross Anglican Church sounds like the kind of parish you might be looking for, we extend an invitation to come and visit us. Come and see for yourself a small, friendly and growing congregation embracing the power of faith and building a new Anglican Church for the glory of God.

Shrove Tuesday brings out the faithful!

Pancakes and all the fixings were the order of the day in the Holy Cross Parish Hall on Shrove Tuesday this year. Our cooks headed by Ed Cantey and Jeff Hodgson cooked a feast for the faithful. Our Shrove Tuesday supper is always a big event for those looking for great food and good fellowship. This year was no exception! Thanks to all who helped with this event.
