About Cross of Light Ministries
A Pentecostal, multi-cultural, Christ-centered church — God Is Everywhere!
Our History
Our Story
Cross of Light Ministries (CLM) was founded with a clear and bold declaration: “God Is Everywhere!” Rooted in this conviction, CLM was established to bring the light of Christ to the Worcester, Massachusetts community and beyond. Under the pastoral leadership of Pastor Bucky Oyekunle, the church has grown into a vibrant, Pentecostal, multi-cultural congregation committed to worship, the Word of God, and genuine community transformation.
Located at 584 Cambridge St in Worcester, MA, Cross of Light Ministries is more than a Sunday gathering — it is a family. Guided by the motto “The Family That Prays Together, Stays Together,” CLM has built a warm, welcoming community where people from all walks of life find a spiritual home. From children's ministry and choir to men's and women's fellowships, the church provides a rich environment for growth at every stage of faith.
Today, Cross of Light Ministries continues to expand its reach through live-streamed Sunday services on YouTube, the Bethel Bible Institute for deeper theological study, and an active prayer ministry that intercedes for the community and the world. CLM's story is still being written — and every soul that walks through our doors becomes part of the ongoing chapter of God's grace at work in Worcester.
