At Crossroads, we describe the spiritual life as a transforming journey with Jesus … Inward, Together and Outward. That follows the direction provided by the Gospel of Luke: Learning to love God with all of our heart, soul and strength and learning to love our neighbor, too. [Luke 10]
Adult spiritual formation is the pathway for people to be introduced to and transformed by Jesus Christ. Every study, formational experience or retreat leads to a relationship with God in Christ and with others in community.
Journey Foundations is our core class to help you develop your relationship with Jesus Christ at Crossroads through this journey. For your next steps in spiritual growth, Crossroads offers adult small groups called Circles of CARE, adult and family baptism classes, Partnership (membership) classes, spiritual life retreats and men's and women's studies.
Whether you are new to the Christian faith or deeply committed on your journey of discipleship, we invite you to participate in any of the following:
JOURNEY FOUNDATIONS
This is our core class that will introduce you to the biblical story and how to read the Bible, to Crossroads' DNA, to basic United Methodist beliefs, and to the transforming spiritual practices of prayer, Bible meditation and discovering God’s plan and will for your life. MORE
BAPTISM
Whether you are 1 or 100, whether it's for you or for your child, baptism is a sacred time that marks you as God's own. Individuals and parents are invited to participate in the Baptism Class, held periodically throughout the year. We will spend time reflecting on what it means to nurture your own soul or to nurture your child in Christian community as well as equipping you and your home to be the center of spiritual growth with very practical and transformational tools. Childcare provided through the usual Sunday morning classes. EMAIL for more information or SIGN UP.
SMALL GROUP CIRCLES OF CARE
Call, Accountability, Reflection and Engagement form the structure for our primary and ongoing way of being church as small groups on the journey inward, together and outward. Circles meet in homes and study the weekly Bible message, pray together and create lasting friendships with other Christians so that Christ may be more fully formed in our daily lives, families, community and world. MORE
PARTNERSHIP
Many have found that a greater understanding and commitment to Christ's church as embodied at 43454 Crossroads Drive is a rewarding step to take. It's called Partnership and it's our form of membership. Here's your chance to "officially" make Crossroads your home. Classes held periodically throughout the year. MORE
MEN'S MINISTRY
Manhood -- it's a role God created and gifted men to fulfill. Crossroads' Men's Ministry provides various opportunities for men to get to know each other and to grow inward, outward and together. Events are held weekly, monthly and quarterly. Plus, the Men's Ministry frequently hosts or plays key roles in support of Crossroads' ministries and missions.

WOMEN'S GATHERINGS
Opportunities throughout the year include periodic Women's Studies, opportunities to serve and an active Mothers Of Preschoolers (MOPS) group. CALENDAR
RETREATS & SEMINARS
There's something about setting aside a time to get away with others in Christian community and participate with mind, body and soul that deepens our relationship with Jesus, with each other and with our neighbors we are called to serve. Crossroads offers retreats throughout the year for couples, men, youth, leaders, families and others. CALENDAR
