For Generations to Come
Building a legacy of God's love in the world
Most of us are familiar with the famous song lyric: "I believe the children are our future. Teach them well and let them lead the way". Indeed, our children are key sources of inspiration, of delighting in the unknown, of seeing things with new eyes, of journeying into uncharted (sometimes scary) territory. For the Church, the current generation is helping to determine and shape whether or not there is a future, or at least what that future means for cultivating and experience an ongoing relationship with God.
For Generations to Come: Building a legacy of God's love in the world is a new initiative aimed at focusing our energies, our time, our hearts, and our hope on our children and students. We're asking YOU to be involved by sharing the gift of your presence with our emerging young leaders so that we can shine the light of faith and know the love of God together for generations to come.

We are celebrating the launch of a new ministry at Crossroads we are calling Nature and Soul!
Jesus said "And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul? Is anything worth more than your soul?" Matthew 16:26
Each of these experiences is designed to share the restorative gifts of God revealed in nature to nurture your mind, body and soul.
Every major medical school is recognizing the healing reality of nature.
The heavens are declaring the glory of God;
and the firmament proclaims God's handiwork.
Day to day pours forth speech,
and night to night declares knowledge.
There is no speech, nor are there words;
their voice is not heard;
yet their voice goes out through all the earth,
and their words to the end o
f the world.
Psalm 19:1-4
