Quest
Come try Quest, the new Movie Vine class, located in the room where the High School used to meet.  In Quest, we will watch movie clips and discuss how they relate to our lives. The Bible is filled with stories of struggling characters that we can draw personal insight from. Film characters and narratives can also stimulate our thinking about our own lives, and they give God a rich source of material to speak to us. In Quest, people will be encouraged to reflect on and discuss their experiences and spiritual self.

Innermission
Innermission starts this Sabbath, October 1, 11:20 am to 11:40 am, right before 2nd service. This week is featuring Don Singh with all original music. 

Blue Jean Sabbath
Blue Jean Sabbath is this Sabbath, October 1.  Working together as a church family to love, help and support the community around us has always been a value we hold at CrossWalk.  Blue Jean Sabbath is one way we live out this value.  On the first Saturday of each month we offer a helping hand to the community in Jesus name.  We wear our jeans that day as a symbol of our calling to serve others. So plan on joining us to put feet to your faith. For more information find us on Facebook.
 
CrossWalk Giving
Generosity of members and friends of CrossWalk has been truly remarkable. Individually and as a community we dedicate a lot of talent, time, and resources to many wonderful causes. As the final quarter of this fiscal year approaches, it becomes apparent that we are a little behind in meeting our local-church-offering goal. As of today we are $29,160.00 short in our year-to-date budget. We humbly ask that you remember Crosswalk in you financial giving to help us continue to serve our church, local, and global communities. We will keep you updated as the situation changes. Thank you again for your faithfulness and dedication to CrossWalk.
