Crossroads Youth Group SNL Summer Series

/0 Comments/in /by

Sunday Night Live (SNL) is back again for the Summer. The youth (grades 7-12)  will meet in Crossroads Church family homes to view and discuss a DVD series based on the book Don’t Waste Your Life by John Piper. In this fabulous work, John Piper challenges us to set aside the trivial pursuit of self-fulfillment so that we can develop a deeper passion for God. Piper believes that if we  submit the sufferings we endure, the risks we take, and the goals we set to the pursuit of God’s glory, then not one moment of our lives will be wasted.  The SNL Meetings are scheduled for Sunday evenings: July 11, July 25, August 8 and August 22 from 6pm until 8:30pm. See the church calendar for meeting locations.

Crossroads Picnic and Silent Auction – Thank You

/0 Comments/in /by
Dear Crossroads,
 
Despite the rain the picnic and auction were a great success.  I have a feeling that this picnic will be one we won’t forget for quite a while (especially for those holding the tarp over the grill).  First, a BIG THANK YOU goes out to all those who diligently worked behind the scenes.  A second thank you goes out to those who donated auction items/services.  Last but not least, thanks to those who have prayerfully considered how they could participate in raising money for the Building Fund.  Your genorosity at the picnic helped to raise $2,306 ($4,612 matched).
 
If you won an item in the auction checks should be made payable to Crossroads PCA (memo line: Building Fund Auction) and mail or hand them to Cindy Riggle by June 20.
 
Lost and Found: 1 small black umbrella and one large black and tan umbrella. Call the church office if you would like to claim them.
 
Thanks again for your support both prayerfully and financially.
 

Summer Christian Education Classes – June 6 – August 29

/0 Comments/in /by

Summer 2010 Christian Education Classes on Sundays 9:15–10:15a.m.

June 6, 2010 through August 29, 2010

 Children (Age 2 through 6th grade)

1.   Nursery (Ages 2–4).  Students will learn about the birth and stories of Jesus, God’s Son, in the New Testament.  Taught by Marcy Naylor and Andrea Williams in Room 130.

2.   Grades K–3.  Studying God’s Word – Taught by Tina Willsher  in Room 132.

3.   Grades 4–6.  Telling Others – Taught by Alix Davis in Room 134.

Adults/Teens

1.         Hebrews.  Have you wondered how old and new testament views of the Messiah were connected? Have you considered what the Bible says about what you should think about how Christ is supreme?

For answers to these and many other questions prayerfully consider the upcoming class study in Hebrews!

In this passage of Scripture we see the importance of godly love that surpasses knowledge. To obtain this love of Christ we need Christ to dwell in our hearts. To have Christ in our hearts we need to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in our inner being.   Bowing knees in prayer before the Father, we can ask Him to strengthen us with power through His Spirit in our inner being.

Crossroads desires that our fellowship of believers in Jesus Christ be strengthened in knowing the love of God so that we can grow in our love for others and increasingly make Christ known.

For the next quarter of Christian Education at Crossroads we will be offering one class for the teens and adults. “A Study in Hebrews” will be led by Joe Dobbels in Room 113.

 The format of this class will include:

  • Introduction to weekly discussion.
  • Review of previous discussion.
  • Prayer in class for helping us to Glorify God. 

 2.   Friendship Class (Special Needs).  God, Our Father – Focuses on the Old Testament to learn of God’s creation, God’s relationship with his people, and God’s promise to send a Savior.  Taught by a group teacher and one adult/teen mentor for each student in Room 104.

Local Mission Project – Saturday, May 8, 2010

/0 Comments/in /by

Please come and join us on Saturday, May 8th from 9:00 am until 11:00 am for a local mission project to help provide food for the hungry.

The Society of St. Andrew works with farmers, volunteers, church, individual supporters, and hunger relief agencies to bridge the hunger gap by simply salvaging fresh food that would otherwise go to waste and deliver it to those in need. This hands-on project will be held outside and is designed to bag 40,000 pounds of cabbages gleaned from a field in Virginia that could not be sold to grocers due to imperfections, however still nutritionally viable.

Location:

Good Shepherd United Methodist Church, 14999 Birchdale Ave, 22193

703- 670-6127

Wear a hat, gloves, and sunscreen!  We hope to see you there.

Please contact Carolyn Ritschard at 703 670 8971 if you have any questions
