In the world of agriculture, soil must remain “fallow” once every few years to maintain its fertility for years to come. To lie fallow is to lie unplowed and unplanted for a time in order for nutrients to be restored. In the month of December, we are letting our church calendar lie fallow. Why? Not so that you can pull away from the life of the church, but instead to press into natural and more intimate opportunities to relate to your church family and neighbors. The holiday season is notoriously one of the busiest times of the year. We want to help you to take advantage of the few free moments you have to spend unhurried, unscheduled time with one another and with family for the grand purpose of allowing your heart to be re-fertilized by the work of Christ, fellowship with the saints and companionship with unbelieving neighbors.
If you ever have any questions about church events, you can look to our church calendar, which is always updated to reflect changes to meetings or events.

Our 5th anniversary is here! This Sunday marks half a decade of Jesus building and sustaining Cross of Grace Santa Ana. We can’t wait to celebrate with kickball, fellowship, and a giant nacho bar. It’s happening at the Houlton home right after the service. We’ll provide a piñata for the kids and a dessert for everyone. Here’s how you can prepare to party with us:
Sign up for our potluck here. Because nacho bars don’t build themselves.
Bring along some athletic wear and tennis shoes for our annual cul-de-sac kickball contest.
Contact the church office with any questions.
Let’s take the joy of Jesus to neighbors. After service on 10/30, head over to French Park to spend time together in the middle of the neighborhood God has placed us in. Here are the details:
It’s “BYOL” (bring your own lunch). If you forget your lunch or your favorite lunchbox isn’t clean, there are plenty of great restaurants nearby in DTSA.
Bring some folding chairs - unless you like sitting on the grass, bring something to sit on.
Expect the Lord to build existing relationships and create new ones with our neighbors.
