Sunday Morning Meetings:

Worship Service (9:30 a.m.)

Our worship service begins at 9:30 on Sunday morning and includes a focused time of musical worship, worship through prayer, and a meaningful study of God’s word where we look to make its significance real for our everyday lives.

Crossway Café (10:30 a.m.)

We serve coffee, doughnuts, and bagels to those who come during our Café time at 9:30 a.m. on Sunday. You are invited to join us-the food is on us. It is our way of saying “Thanks for coming.” During this time we enjoy talking and spending time together. Community is something we value at Crossway, this gives us the perfect opportunity to support each other and build relationships.

Discovering God (11:00 a.m.)

Our Discovering God meets on Sundays at 11:00 a.m. This time is focused on how we can have a relationship with God and grow in him. Pastor Mark takes everyday issues and teaches us with everyday language. All who want to learn about God and grow in their relationship to Him will find this class enjoyable and challenging.

Youth Group (11:00 a.m.)

(7th grade – 12th grade) Our Youth Group meets on Sundays at 11:00 a.m. during the Discovering God Time. The goal of this teaching time, specifically designed for teenagers, is to take the Word of God and apply it to our teens’ lives. The Word of God is something that your teens need to know and practice. This time is specifically designed to not only be informative but also enjoyable. The youth group meets throughout the week and for activities to fellowship and have fun.

Junior Church (10:00 a.m.)

Junior Church is a special service we have for younger children ages 4 through 11. The children are involved with the adult worship time and then are dismissed for the teaching time. In this class, the children are taught the Word of God through practical illustrations, stories, games, and crafts. The children sing songs, memorize verses and learn to sit still and listen. The basics of Salvation, the Word of God, and Christianity are taught during this interactive time. Our goal not only is that each young child learns the truths that are necessary for the Holy Spirit to work in their lives and save them, but also they would then grow to become godly young people. *Child Care is provided for the duration of all morning services (Ages 4 and under).

Sunday Night Bible Study (Sunday 6:00 p.m. to 7:15 p.m.)

On Sunday nights we are meeting together in an effort 1) to learn from the Bible and 2) to learn how to study the Bible. Kyle Dunham, Ph.D. is teaching systematically from the book of Romans. Please join us on Sunday nights at Suburu Elementary School at 6 p.m.

Care Groups

Once a month on Sunday nights (instead of our normal Bible study) we meet together at homes. These groups offer a greater opportunity to develop meaningful relationships, prayer, and to discuss the Bible. Contact us about becoming part of one of these groups where you can be introduced to a loving church family in an informal setting.
