RISE UP begins a movement the requires our faith
to grow and our courage to increase. RISE UP depends on us trusting in who God is more
than what we can do. As we look at a biblical example in Nehemiah, we see what can happen in
God’s Kingdom when a few people decide to believe that God is capable of the impossible.
Will we RISE UP to the task that God is calling us to?

Attention all ministry team leaders, elders and staff!
Join us as we head to Ozark
Christian College for the 2016 Preaching & Teaching
Convention!
Crossroads pays registration and hotel. You are responsible for your meals.
Sign up at the Welcome Center or talk to Matt.
We will leave February 21st at 4pm and return on February 25th around 2pm.
Our college students are here! One of the best way to minister to
our college students is provide them a place away from home to
relax and EAT! They are hungry and many call
Crossroads home. We are looking for families of
Crossroads to feed between 15—20 students each Sunday after 1 1 am
service. You can bring food, take them out, team up with another
family or make a donation.
SIGN UP AT THE WELCOME CENTER!
It is that time of year again! We have opened our online order form for our
2016 Cherry Pie Fundraiser. Pies will be made and delivered on
Saturday, February 6, 2016. To ensure our best quality product possible,
we are not making peach pies this year. *Special Offer*: Purchase five cherry pies
And get the sixth one free! All proceeds benefit the Women’s Ministry at
Church Without Walls, Atlanta, MO. For details and to place an order - go to
