weekend report

Deering's last weekend with us before heading to Dallas!
Deering's been a faithful friend and valuable part of our ministry!

This weekend could not have been more packed and exciting - except of course for the fact that one of my dearest friends has been called away from Crossroads.













Just take a look at some of the amazingness!

Mission Expo!  Crossroads' partners with 3
foreign mission partners, and 6 local agencies in our community.

Town Square fellowship between services.

A great praise team - a touching added note: 1 of our interns, Ben,
was playing lead guitar with his grandma beside him on flute!
A generational team is a healthy team!

Student Ministry Mission Team ready to depart to
take over Louisville, Kentucky - working with the immigrant
population, sports camps, Salvation Army and other organizations!

Our Student Ministry Mission team - receiving Crossroads' blessing!
We sent a total of 73 on this mission trip - pray for them this week!

Luggage = much preparation for Students mission trip!

weekend report

Where do I begin???

First thing this morning as I walked across to my office I heard the most peculiar sounds - it sounded exactly like the character from Lord of the Rings saying 'my precious'. This is what I found - our Small Group pastor, Deering Dyer inhaling helium! What a welcome!

In trying to figure out what to do this year to honor our veterans I decided to set up a photo booth in our Town Square and take pictures and scan their 'old' pictures when they were still in active duty. This was an idea that I had second thoughts about but moved ahead anyway and MAN did it go over big! People lined up across the room to get their pictures taken.

We are going to create a countdown using current pictures and then use the remainder of the people that bring us their active duty pictures combined with their current shots in a patriotic music video. I was very thankful that the Veterans seemed excited about getting their pictures taken!
