The primary way we do that is through Connect Groups, but we also have several church wide and outreach events throughout the year called Connection Points. Be sure to check out the upcoming events and sign up for the ones you’d like to take part in. If you’re interested in serving at any event, let us know! Be sure to follow us on social media to stay up to date on what’s happening at Crossroads!

JOIN A CONNECT GROUP!
Fall Season Weekly Varies
One thing can change everything. Know what it is? Getting connected to the right people. It’s true in every area of life. Making the right connection can change EVERYTHING! The best way to get connected is becoming part of a Connect Group. If you haven’t found a group yet, now is the time!
Connect Groups are small groups that meet in homes weekly to build relationships and dig into God's Word. Each group shares unique interests and/or life stages. A Connect Group provides an environment where you can feel comfortable talking about the Bible, asking questions and sharing prayer requests.
CONNECT GROUPS FOR KIDS (1st-6th grade)
Sundays 10:00 & 11:30 a.m. Children's Building
Connect Groups for Kids are every Sunday (beginning Sunday, September 15) at 10:00 and 11:30 a.m. Kids' Connect Groups follow the Adult Connect Group Season, meeting in classrooms in the children’s building with the same group each week. These groups are for children who have already attended the 8:45 or 10:00 a.m. worship service for their age group. Each group will discuss the lesson taught in their worship service and go deeper with questions designed to help them apply the lesson to their life. The intimate setting of Kids' Connect Groups and the personal relationships they create allow children to feel safe, loved, accepted and connected with the same kids and leader each week.
Our Kids' Connect Group Leaders are passionate about kids and helping them grow in their personal relationship with Jesus. We believe these groups are an amazing opportunity for your child(ren) to get connected to each other and build friendships with kids their age.
CHRISTMAS BLESSINGS TOY DRIVE & STORE
Christmas Blessings Toy Drive is an annual opportunity for those who have been blessed to bless others. Our primary focus is providing gifts for children, ages 18 and under, in our church family and community who wouldn’t have much of a Christmas if it weren’t for the generosity of our Crossroads’ family. Nominees must live in the DFW area to qualify. You can pick up a nomination form to nominate a family in need in the church office Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. The nomination deadline is Sunday, December 1.
We will have “toy boxes” in all of the lobbies, starting Sunday, December 1, where you can place your unwrapped gifts. We’ve also set up an online shopping experience to make it more convenient for you to give. You can purchase a gift for a child of any age online here through Amazon, and have it shipped directly to the church. We’ll take care of everything else! You can also give a cash donation to help us purchase gifts for children. Our deadline to receive toys is Sunday, December 8. Thank you for your generosity!
Christmas Blessing Toy Store
After all applications have been submitted and toys purchased, we wrap every gift to be given to the families in need at our Christmas Blessing Toy Store. If you'd like to help us wrap the gifts we receive, sign up to serve below.
