What to Expect

Going to a church for the first time can be intimidating. To help ease your way and answer your questions, here's a summary of what you can expect at Crossroads Community Church. First, while we strive to grow spiritually at CCC, we're all regular people with everyday struggles--and we all had a first day at church, too. If you don't understand something, please ask someone or give us a call (you'll find we're pretty friendly and welcoming).

 

When and Where

We start Sunday School for all ages at 9 AM. Sunday Morning Worship begins in the auditorium at 10 AM. Arriving 10 minutes early will allow you time to find everything you need and get settled in. (Need directions?)

 

Worship Service

Our worship service features a mix of contemporary praise songs and traditional hymns. It starts at 10 AM and finishes around 11:20. The Bible-based message aims to explain God's Word in a way that applies to your life today. Whether you're looking into Christianity for the first time or have been a Christian for many years, we want to encourage you to draw closer to God.

 

Children of any age are welcome in the worship service. However, we do have a great nursery for children through age four that includes age-appropriate Bible stories and songs. Older children (ages 4 through fourth grade) begin worship with their parents in the main fellowship hall. Around 10:30, parents may send their children to KidZone / Kids' Club or keep them in the worship service.

 

When we pass the collection plate on your first visit, feel free to let it go by. Also, plan on staying for a few minutes after the service for light refreshments and some conversation. Connecting with others is one of the most important parts of church (Hebrews 10:25).

 

What to Wear

God looks at your heart in worship more than He looks at your clothes (1 Samuel 16:7). He wants us to give Him our best, whether that be dressing formally or coming casually. Don't let this concern you too much; we have people who dress at both ends of the spectrum.

 

What We Believe

Our passion at Crossroads is to see lives changed by the good news of Jesus Christ. We exist to share the love of Jesus with all who come, and we would be delighted to talk with you about how to have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. (Want to know more about what we believe or how to receive Christ?)

 

The Rest of the Week

Sunday morning is a great start for connecting with God and others. Opportunities during the week are designed to help you go deeper: small groups, men's and women's Bible studies, youth groups, picnics and lots more.

 

For Those with Disabilities

We welcome you! Our one-level facility and its restrooms are easily accessible for those with disabilities. We have reserved parking spaces near the front entrance to the building. Please tell us your needs, and we will certainly try to fill them.

 

Youth

Junior and Senior High also meets for Sunday School at 9 a.m., looking into God's Word and praying for one another.  These groups also meet during the week to dig deeper.

Infants and Toddlers

Crossroads has two nurseries, equipped with all the supplies needed to help children feel safe and comfortable and have a good time, giving you an opportunity to really focus on the worship service. We view caring for your children as more than glorified babysitting. It's a chance to help them know more about God and His Word with age-appropriate Bible stories, games and crafts. (Would you like to know more about our kids' ministries?)

 

Communion

At Crossroads, Communion (The Lord's Supper) is a once-a-month celebration of the loving sacrifice Jesus made on the cross for sinners like us. It's open to all (3rd grade and older) who have publicly professed their faith in Christ at Crossroads or another gospel-believing church.

 

Please plan to join us on Sunday!
