Preparing For Worshp: September 21, 2008

This Sunday is a very special occasion; it marks the two year anniversary of the beginning of Crossroads Community Church in the backyard of Josh and Debbie Abramson!

I've only been a part of the ride for the last year, but even in that time, I've been able to see God's amazing faithfulness to this little church. There is no doubt in my mind that he has some extraordinary plans to use Crossroads to magnify his great name in the SCV and elsewhere; and I know you all would agree!

This Sunday we have a few special things planned in celebration of turning two years old. We will have the vocal group Majesty, from The Master's College, here to minister in song, and lead in worship singing. They will share some great truths about the character of God, and remind us of his faithfulness to generations past, and remind us that we can trust him to be faithful to us today!

We will dedicate one of our newest little guys, Chase Kostjuk, to the Lord, commission his parents, Tyler and Cristen, to bring him up in the ways of the Lord, and commit to continually support them as their church family.

Pastor Todd will continue teaching us from the Sermon on the mount; this week teaching from the fifth beatitude having to do with mercy. We're just over halfway through the beatitudes, so don't check out, let's squeeze all the wisdom we can out of this section of scripture where Jesus so plainly and clearly tells us how we should live.

Majesty will close our service out with another song, and then we'll all share lunch together thanks to the Tommy's Burgers cookout trailer, which will meet you as you exit the building.

Looking forward to a great morning of celebration and thanksgiving. Be sure to join us, and happy preparation!
