Take a moment to hear Pastor's Tim message about the upcoming week!

Yesterday was the last week in our Faith and Science series. Pastor Tim shared a message called The Holy in Medicine. He shared the story of Jesus healing ten men with leprosy, and only one of the men comes back to thank him. Through this story and modern anecdotes, Pastor Tim highlighted the compassion Jesus has for those who are sick, hurt, or in pain, and how he models the attentive and caring spirit we too are called to show. Even if today, that healing is accompanied by medicine or other treatments, how great is our God that we would continue to grow in wisdom and understanding through the sciences to care for one another!

If you missed Sunday's service you can watch online on our website or on Facebook.

New Message Series: How Do I Do That?

When it comes to relationships and the people around us, there are a lot of hard things we have learn how to do. How do we share what we see in others without hurting their feelings? How do we become a source of encouragement to others? How do we call out the best in our friends, families and colleagues?

Join us for this three week series as we dive into these questions.

Crossroads wants to honor a special group of moms who are enrolled at W.O. Robey High School in Sterling. William O. Robey High School is Loudoun County Public Schools' (LCPS) first Non-Traditional High School that opened this academic year. This high school serves students who are working, parenting, or need to earn credits more quickly than their traditional LCPS High School allows. Currently there are 23 students enrolled and five are moms.  

We will be collecting them until Sunday, May 29th. You can purchase these items in person and drop them off at Entrance 1 of the church anytime, on Sundays during worship, or through our Amazon wish list. A monetary donation will also be accepted by clicking here, and we will purchase the items for you!

Stick around for a movie! We are recognizing AAPI Heritage Month (Asian American and Pacific Islander) with a free, church-wide movie night! Learn more about its history here. 

Raya and the Last Dragon (2021)- In this animated Disney adventure, warrior princess Raya seeks to find a way to reverse a curse-like plague that turns anyone it touches into stone. She teams up with Sisu, the last surviving dragon, on the quest and ultimately learns the importance of trusting others and overcoming prejudice to find common ground.

Minari (2020)- This Academy Award winning picture is a warm and memorable story about what roots us. It tells the story of a Korean American family who moves to an Arkansas farm in search of their own American dream with humor and heart. Amidst the instability and challenges of this new life in the rugged Ozarks, Minari shows the undeniable resilience of family and what really makes a home.

The Namesake (2007)- After moving from Calcutta to New York, members of the Ganguli family maintain a delicate balancing act between honoring the traditions of their native India and blending into American culture. Although the parents Ashoke and Ashima are proud of the sacrifices they make to give their offspring opportunities, their son Gogol strives to forge his own identity without forgetting his heritage.

Stephanie Rogers, of the Crossroads Worship Team, will be launching her new album, Finding My Way, featuring additional members of the worship team.

This is a free event. Doors open at 4:30, concert begins at 5pm.
