Thanks for stopping by! Here you'll find the latest happenings at CrossView, upcoming events worth noting, and opportunities to get involved. We're glad you're part of our community and excited to grow in faith together.
This Sunday at CrossView Church
We all long for fresh starts—a chance to begin again with hope restored and purpose renewed. But what does it mean when God promises to write His law not on stone tablets, but on our hearts?
What would change in your life if you truly knew God in a personal, intimate way? How might a promise like this reshape the way you see yourself and your relationship with Him?
Connect with us this Sunday as we reflect on these questions in our sermon, "The Promise of a New Covenant."
Bible Memorization
We are focusing on memorizing key Bible verses corresponding to Pastor James’ sermon series “The Unfolding Gospel.” Memorizing Scripture is an excellent discipline for spiritual growth that allows us to focus our minds on God’s Word and so enrich our spiritual lives. This November we will be memorizing Ezekiel 36:26-27.
FUEL THANKSGIVING POTLUCK DINNER
Thursday, November 20 ~ 6:00 p.m.
You are invited to join CVC’s Fuel youth group for a Thanksgiving Potluck dinner in the gym. We will eat together, play games, and worship. This is an opportunity for our congregation and Fuel students to come together as most of the students do not attend church and don’t come from homes that attend church.
The average student attendance on Thursday night Fuel meetings is 36 and the families of the students will also be invited. Please bring a side dish or dessert to share. Turkey and drinks will be provided. Any questions, contact Kyle Pratt at kylegarypratt@gmail.com or fuel@crossviewonline.org

To help prepare our hearts to worship him, starting next Sunday, the Everyday Gospel Christmas Devotional by Paul David Tripp will be available for your family. This advent devotional includes twenty-five readings designed to help you connect Scripture’s transforming power to your daily life. May each day’s reading bring you and your family closer to Jesus as you look forward to Christmas Day. Donations for the book will be accepted to support the Fuel Youth Group’s Winter Retreat.
