connect groups
Why should I join a Connect Group?
We believe that you can only move so far on your spiritually journey without others. Being in a group will help you develop lasting friendships that will push you further faster on your spiritual journey. Also, groups are just a great place to make friends and realize you are not alone in whatever you are going through. Groups celebrate successes and help each other through the tough times.
Do I have to be a member of Crossroads Church to join a Connect Group?
No way. Groups are for anyone and everyone at Crossroads.
What happens in a Connect Group?
You show up and eat some snacks and hang out for about 20 minutes. After that we move to our Message Based Curriculum time for about 40 minutes. That means that we talk about the message from the previous weekend in a creative way. It allows everyone to have the opportunity to ask questions about things they didn’t understand. Also, the discussion is highly practical to your life. Our leaders facilitate conversation, they do not preach! It isn’t a bunch of theology that only a few can understand. It is for everyone at every point in place on their journey with Christ. Then the groups move into a time of prayer! Then they hang out for a little while and go home.
Where do Connect Groups meet?
They meet all over our area in host homes. You can usually find a group within 10-15 minutes of your house.
Is there childcare available?
It depends on the group. Most groups have childcare. The group finds its own place to house the children. A childcare worker or two usually take care of the little ones during the group time.
What if I don't like the first group I try?
Try another one! We understand that every person is not going to click the first night, so we ask that you hang in your group for at least 5 weeks. Usually after 5 weeks of consistently attending groups will gel, but by all means if you want to try a new group just let us know.
Can I start my own group?
We are always looking for new leaders and hosts. We would love to get your information and talk with you about starting a group at some point. We have strategic times in the year when we launch new groups. If you are interested, email doug@cometocrossroads.org and he will set-up a time to meet with you.
How do I get into a Connect Group?
You can sign up for a Connect Group by emailing doug@cometocrossroads.org or we can contact you about the next connection night to plug you into a group.
