Welcome!

We feel Christian Education is important for the spiritual development of each one of us.  Sunday School classes and small groups set the stage for better and deeper understanding of God's Word for us.  It is a comprehensive way of learning from one another and to receive and grow into living by God's Word.  It also provides for and fosters close relationships in fellowship, friendship and trust.

We invite you to read more about what is offered at Cross Roads Church and to try a group or class.  If it doesn't fit you, no worries!  Try another! 

Sunday Mornings 10:05 am - 10:55 am
