Sunday, November 20, is Crossroads’ annual Serve the Date event. Our mission is to make following Jesus a way of life, and on this Sunday, we live out that mission by serving our neighbors and community.

We will start our morning at 8:00 as we gather for coffee and a communion meditation before we break into our teams and head to our service locations. We will return to Crossroads at 11:00 for a lunch of soup, crackers, bread, and sweet tea. After lunch, we will have an abbreviated worship time with a message and a time of sharing stories from that morning.
