Did You Know We Offer Services and Small Groups Just for Teens?

At Crossroads Church, we’re all about helping people of all ages grow in their relationship with Christ, and that includes our amazing middle and high school community! If you’ve got a middle or high schooler looking for a place to connect, grow, and have fun, then
The Exchange Student Ministry is the perfect fit.

The Exchange Ministry is designed specifically for middle and high schoolers who want to dive deeper into their faith, make new friends, and discover what it really means to follow Jesus. We know that the teen years can be full of challenges, changes, and big questions, which is why we offer a space where students can explore their faith in a supportive and exciting environment.

Here’s what you can expect:

  • Sunday Services: Every Sunday, we offer engaging worship and teaching that speaks directly to the lives of Middle School students.
  • Wednesday Services: Every Wednesday from 6:30pm – 8:30pm, we offer an exciting worship experience for High School students. We tackle real-world issues that teens face today, helping them navigate life with a foundation in Christ.
  • Small Groups: Our small groups provide a more personal, intimate space for students to build relationships, discuss God’s Word, and support each other.
  • Special Events: From fun hangouts to conferences and camps to service opportunities, there’s always something exciting happening in The Exchange!

If you’re new, or if you’re wondering how to get your middle or high schooler plugged in, we’d love to meet them and show them around!

Your Next Step in Faith Starts with Baptism!

Your Next Step in Faith Starts with Baptism!

Why Getting Baptized is an Important Step in Your Faith Journey

If you’ve recently accepted Jesus as your Savior, congratulations! This is a monumental moment in your life—a fresh start, a new hope, and the beginning of a deeper relationship with God. But what comes next? One important step that Jesus Himself encourages every believer to take is baptism. If you’ve been wondering why baptism matters, or if it’s time for you to take this step, we want to encourage you to consider signing up for our next baptism service on March 2 at Crossroads Church. There’s still time to sign up, and here’s why you should!

Baptism is a Command from Jesus

When Jesus walked this earth, He made it clear that baptism is not just a nice tradition, but a command for every believer. In Matthew 28:19, He told His disciples: “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.” Baptism is a public declaration of your faith—a step of obedience that follows your decision to accept Christ. It’s not about being perfect or having everything figured out; it’s about stepping forward in faith and obeying Jesus’ command.

Baptism Is a Symbol of Your New Life in Christ

When you’re baptized, you are symbolically identifying with the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus. Romans 6:4 says, “We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.” Baptism is a beautiful way to outwardly express the inward transformation that has taken place in your heart. It’s a visible testimony that you have been spiritually reborn.

A Public Declaration of Your Faith

Baptism is also a public profession of your faith in Jesus Christ. When you get baptized, you’re not just showing up for yourself; you’re showing the world that you belong to Jesus. In Romans 10:9, it says, “If you declare with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord,’ and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” Baptism is a powerful way to declare, “I believe in Jesus!” and to invite others to witness the transformation that God has done in your life.

Joining a Family of Believers

Baptism is not just an individual act; it’s also about becoming part of the body of Christ. When you get baptized, you’re joining a community of believers who are on the same journey of faith. You’re saying, “I’m committed to walking with you and growing with you in Christ.” Baptism is a beautiful moment that ties you to a larger, supportive family of Christians who will encourage you and help you grow in your faith.

It’s Not Too Late to Sign Up

If you’ve recently accepted Jesus into your life, or if you’re still considering baptism as your next step, we want to remind you that there’s still time to sign up for our next baptism service on March 2 at Crossroads Church. This is an opportunity to publicly express your faith, to follow Jesus’ example, and to mark this new chapter in your spiritual journey. It’s a significant milestone that will strengthen your relationship with God and encourage others in their own faith.

Whether you’ve been a believer for a short time or for many years, baptism is a step that can bring new depth to your faith and joy to your walk with Jesus. So don’t wait—sign up today and take the next step in your relationship with Jesus!

Your Next Step is Just Around the Corner

As you take this important step in your faith, remember that baptism is not the end—it’s just the beginning of an incredible journey with Jesus. God has amazing plans for your life, and baptism is an important part of saying “yes” to everything He has in store for you. We’re so excited to celebrate with you on March 2—we hope to see you there!
