Wilderness Temptations Of Jesus | Sign Up

Ladies, for this season of our contemplative approach to Bible study, we will be spending time in the stories of Joshua as we learn what it meant for Israel to Possess the Promised Land. This is a class for everyone, at any stage of your spiritual journey! It is a great opportunity to meet others and engage the story of Scripture together. Please sign up so we can best prepare for our time together, and let us know if you’d like childcare.

For questions, email Deacon Cheryl.

We will have two Sunday services as usual, at 9am and 10:45am. Each service will include our usual worship, liturgy, and communion. After each service, we will have a party on our front lawn for our congregation and the surrounding neighborhood as we celebrate our 22 years in ministry. There will be food, cake, a bouncy house, and much merriment!

All men are welcome for this time of fellowship. We meet at a different house each month for this casual hangout time. Feel free to bring a lawn chair and your favorite beverage (for yourself or to share). We'll meet at Peter Berg’s in Plymouth. Please sign up online so the host can best prepare their space. Your confirmation email will have the full address. If you have any questions, please email Mark Hoober.

Join us on the 2nd and 4th Wednesdays for a Gratitude Gathering—a simple, open meeting centered around the spiritual practice of thanksgiving. We share reflections, write thank-you cards, and make time for silence and journaling. It's a quiet, grounded hour oriented around one simple question: what are you grateful for? All are welcome, including your neighbors and friends. We will meet at church in the Conference Room.

For questions or more information, please email Justin Bedford.

Parents and guardians, join us with your children of all ages for a time of connection and conversation, play and snacks, wondering and laughing. We will plan to meet at Burnes Park in Hopkins from 9:30-11:30am (weather permitting).

Summer is the time for baseball! Join Pastor Joel and other baseball fans at Cross for a Twins game. Each ticket is $18. That includes a seat, a hot dog, and a drink (pop). If you would like to join us, please sign up here. We need to have a final number to pay for the tickets on 7/21. That is a hard deadline as the Twins require payment 3 weeks in advance. If you have questions, or if money is an issue, talk to Deacon Joel. Hope to see you there!

Free of Charge by Miroslav Volf invites us to consider how a Christian can embrace the practices of giving and forgiving in an increasingly graceless culture that assesses little value to either but which are clearly modeled for us in God's generosity toward us and Christ's sacrifice on our behalf. Theologian Volf draws upon a myriad of literary and theological sources, including the words of the Apostle Paul and Martin Luther, as he reflects on the centrality of giving and forgiving in the Christian life. We hope you'll read and join the discussion! Questions? Email Lauren Mitchell.

What is a biblical imagination and why does it matter? How can we cultivate a biblical imagination through engagement with creative work and the Bible itself?

Sign up (it's free!) to save your seats.

Doors open at 6:30pm. Concert at 7pm. Buy Tickets!
