What to Expect when you visit Crossroads

We know it’s tough visiting a  Sunday worship for the first time  - or for the first time in a long time - so we want to let you know what to expect, to help you feel more comfortable.

DRESS

Most dress casually.

WHEN YOU ARRIVE

Our building is not large, so you can’t get lost.  Greeters in the foyer will give you the worship program and answer any questions you may have. we also have sheets with some activities for the kids. Bathrooms are downstairs, along with our staffed nursery.

STYLE & CONTENT OF WORSHIP

Our style is contemporary and simple.  We begin with greeting one another, followed by some contemporary praise songs led by our worship team of guitars, bass, drums and singers (please feel free to sing and respond according to your own style and comfort level).   We then have announcements and an offering for Crossroads Ministries.

DURING THE SERVICE

The sunday messages are based on the Bible and speak to contemporary life and needs, children from age 4 through 5th grade go downstairs for Children’s Worship, along with 6-8 graders for Middle School Youth.   Sr. High students stay with adults upstairs.   Of course, if you rather have your child stay with you, that’s fine.    Also, there’s a long seat and large window in the foyer if you feel your child is “antsy” and you want to leave the worship center, but still be able to see what’s going on and continue to participate in the worship.   

COMMUNION (the Lord’s Supper)

We celebrate Communion every week, and you do not have to be a member to participate.

WRAPUP

A brief Bible reading and song finish our worship time together.   Refreshments for all are available in the foyer.

That’s about it…we hope you visit us soon!
