WHO WE ARE
REACHING THE DISCONNECTED AND GROWING THE CONNECTED
The very first word of our mission statement says it all. We desire to reach out to those in our community who don’t know Christ, not just sit and wait for the community to come to us. And once we have reached the disconnected, we desire to help them grow in faith and spiritual maturity so that they may join us in carrying out our mission.
We do this in three ways: Seeking, Sharing and Serving.
SEEKING GOD
In every aspect of our lives, we seek the living God – for guidance, for strength, for forgiveness, for love. We do this in worship, where we show our love for God through song and get to know Him through His word.
We also seek Him in our daily lives through devotion, prayer, praise, and thanksgiving. Seeking God is more than a mission. It’s our purpose in life. We pray you’ll join us in making it part of yours, too!
SHARING OUR LIVES
Christ never meant for us to go through life as “lone wolves.”
In the book of Luke, Jesus calls us to love our neighbors as ourselves. In other words, Christians should support one another, counsel each other, teach one another, and encourage one another in the faith.
We call this “sharing our lives,” and it’s the second way we carry out our mission at Crossroads.
