A Message from the Crossroads Elders:
Please know that the Crossroads Elders are monitoring the ever-changing Covid landscape and we will communicate to the congregation if and when we feel changes need to be made to our overall ministry approach. For now, we are continuing with our regular on-campus and live stream worship options (no mandatory masks or distancing). In the meantime, when it comes to ministry and worship participation, we are trusting each Crossroads attender to make the very best decision for their individual family. STAY FAITHFUL!

Spanish Ministry:
Come join our Spanish Ministry as we study God's Word on Thursday nights at 6:30 PM in Classroom A. The service will be in Spanish. Invite a friend!

GO MINISTRY

Malachi Dad's Ministry:
How can incarcerated dad’s help raise their kids? It may sound nearly impossible, but that is exactly the goal of the Malachi Dad’s ministry. To give our hope in Christ to the imprisoned and help them engage their children in meaningful and purposeful ways.

Stop by the Outreach Connection and talk with John Reed about how you can serve in this vital ministry.

Evangelism Training:
How do we start gospel conversations? What are the best verses to use? How should we respond to questions that are asked? Those questions and many more may come to mind when you think about evangelism. Join us on Sunday, September 12th at 9:00 AM in Classroom A for a time of training where we will cover many of the tools and techniques for telling others about Jesus. Be ready for an encouraging time together as we grow in faithfulness and boldness with the gospel. Sign up today!
