New Church Constitution Proposal

The Crossroads Elders have been diligently working on updating the church constitution and recently presented a final draft to the congregation. Copies of the draft document are available.

During August 2018, three Sundays have been set aside for examination and discussion of the new constitution. The Sunday School hour of August 5, 12, and 19, 2018 will be used for this purpose with the same material repeated at the Sunday Evening Bible Study of the same day. All members are encouraged to read the draft version and come to these three sessions.

On August 26, 2018 a congregational meeting will be held to formally vote on the proposed constitution.

Alert: Extreme Cold Cancels Activities

All Crossroads scheduled activities, including Prayer Time, Worship Service, Sunday School, Evening Bible Study, Youth meeting, and Board of Elders meeting, are canceled for Sunday February 15, 2015 due to the extreme cold temperatures and wind chill.

The 2013 Annual Congregational Meeting will be held Monday January 27, 2014 at 7:00 pm. Agenda packets will be available Sunday January 26, 2014. A vote will be held to confirm Paul Sereda as a new Elder.

Elder Care Groups Realigned

Due to the recent "retirement" of Pete Keeley as an Elder, the 'Elder Care Group' assignments have been adjusted effective November 1, 2011. Thank you Pete for your many years of selfless service to the Lord and His church.

Here are the current assignments:

Bill Haller	A
Chuck Murrin	B-D
Matt Courtney	E-F
Frank Weese	G-H
Todd Jaussen	J-L
Gary Meikle	M
Ron Beil	N-R
Lee Earnhardt	S
Bill Haller	T-Z

If you are in need of spiritual care, guidance, or help, feel free to contact your Elder. The desire is to be able to best minister to each and every one of you and to be your servants in the Lord. Please pray for the Elders as they seek to care for Christ's dear sheep as men who must give an account.

Are You Ready to be Baptized or Join Crossroads?

The Elders would like to hear from anyone who is interested in following the Bible commandment to be baptized and join the church. As they are presently meeting with folks who want to be baptized and also with those who are ready to join our church, please contact one of the Elders soon if you would like to be included. You can use the Contact Form on our Contacts page.

Winter Storm Forces Cancelations

A huge winter storm has caused some upcoming events to be canceled or postponed:

• The Sunday Evening Bible Study and Joyful Sound Choir practice for Sunday December 12, 2010 have been canceled.
• The combined Elders and Deacons meeting for Monday December 13, 2010 has been postponed until further notice.

New Elder Care Groups Announced

The Elders at Crossroads have an 'Elder Care Group' program to better minister to our growing congregation. By dividing the congregation by last name, each group becomes the special focus of a particular elder. Although all the Elders will continue to minister to the whole congregation, one Elder will be responsible to specifically minister, encourage, help, and be aware of any specific needs you may have. He will also be responsible to keep the other Elders informed of your needs. The Elder assignments shift every year, giving all the Elders an opportunity to become better acquainted with the whole congregation over time.

If you are in need of spiritual care, guidance, or help, feel free to contact your Elder. The desire is to be able to best minister to each and every one of you and to be your servants in the Lord. Please pray for the Elders as they seek to care for Christ's dear sheep as men who must give an account.

After the recent induction of four additional elders, the 'Elder Care Group' assignments have been realigned. Here are the current assignments through the end of 2011:

Pete Keeley	A-B
Chuck Murrin	C-D
Matt Courtney	E-F
Frank Weese	G-H
Todd Jaussen	J-L
Gary Meikle	M
Ron Beil	N-R
Lee Earnhardt	S
Bill Haller	T-Z

Ordination of Elders

On Sunday August 22, 2010 we have the great joy of ordaining four men to the eldership. As these men begin their ministry among us as shepherds and pastors, please support them in prayer and with your encouragements. The men are Ron Beil, Matt Courtney, Lee Earnhardt and Frank Weese. We thank God for blessing this church with such godly leaders.

Special Congregational Meeting Announced

A special congregational meeting will be held on July 12, 2010 at 7:00 pm for the purpose of recognition of Elders. The names on four men are being put forward for consideration for this very important leadership position: Ron Beil, Matt Courtney, Lee Earnhardt, and Frank Weese. Please begin praying for the wisdom of God and His direction as we seek His will concerning these men.

Joint Leadership Conference Coming

Our church, along with Central Community and Lakeside, will be hosting an Elder/Leadership Conference on Friday evening October 9 and Saturday morning October 10, 2009. The elders of those churches will be meeting at Lakeside during those times, and there will be a special session on Saturday for the elders’ wives. Pastor Randy Pizzino from Trinity Baptist Church in Roanoke, Virginia, will be the speaker. His wife, Julie, will be addressing the wives. If any men in the church aspire to the office of elder and would like to attend these sessions, you are more than welcome.

See one of the elders for more information.
