WINTER GROUPS

When we say “We become more like Jesus together,” we mean it! God designed each one of us to be connected to others. It’s an essential component to a growing faith. At Crossroads, that connection happens through groups. We will be launching winter groups on Jan. 27th. Hopefully, you already have a Small Groups booklet, but if you didn’t get one, head to the auditorium entrance to grab one. Sign up and leern more.

PRAYER & FASTING

It’s not too late to join our prayer and fasting time through January 26. You can also let us know about your commitment at our display in the Next Steps area. For prayer resources and to learn more.

DISCIPLE MAKER GATHERING

Jesus’ plan for the change the world was simple: Discipleship. His last instructions were to “go into the world and make disciples.” Simple, yes. But also easy to lose sight of. That’s why we want to hold quarterly disciple maker gatherings as a way to remind us of the mission, equip us to disciple better, and to encourage each other along the way. We’d love your presence at the first gathering of 2025 on Sunday, January 19th from 4:00-5:30 p.m. in the cafe area of the south campus.
