Saved people, people

What’s Happening at Crossroads

NEW HERE?

We’re so glad you’ve chosen to come to Crossroads today! We want to thank you for visiting and would love to get to know you. Stop by and say hello at one of our Welcome Centers, our First Step area, or check out ecrossroads.info for more. We can’t wait to meet you!

IT’S MY SERVE

Jesus modeled it. We’re called to live it. The outflow of a saved life is hands that serve others. This 4-week series will remind us that Jesus has equipped and called each of us to serve in our church, in our community, and across the globe. If you are interested in serving at Crossroads, take a look at our serving opportunities.

BACK TO SCHOOL PRAYERS

At Next Steps, there are post-its with lies our students believe. We encourage you to take one to pray the truth over that lie this week. If you took a post-in last week, don’t forget your ping-pong ball for your act of kindness.

GLOBAL LEADERSHIP SUMMIT

On Thursday and Friday, our South campus was host to a local simulcast of the Global Leadership Summit. We had over 150 folks from our community learning how to design their tomorrow. Thank you to those who volunteered to make our guests feel cared for.

PRAYER ROOM IS OPEN

God calls us to pray about everything, but sometimes, it’s difficult to find the words on our own. Our prayer teams are ready to help you bring anything to the Lord. Come to the prayer room at the back of the auditorium after each gathering, and we will pray with you and for you.
