Hey Crossroads Families, Happy New Year! 2026 is shaping up to be epic! Here's what's on the horizon...
We're just a few weeks away from Winter Retreat. Final payments are due by January 11. Grab your packing list and check out final details here. Also, Bair Lake sent over a final waiver that they need every participant to complete - this also contains the permission for the optional Polar Plunge. Unfortunately, this one isn't digital, so you'll need to print it off and turn it in to Pastor Rich or grab one from the Dive bulletin board. Get the Bair Lake Activity Participation Form here.
This month we're starting a thematic study of the book of Ephesians on Sunday nights called Level Up. You can find out more about that below.
We've got a new small group leader joining our team this month - Chris Burman! She's jumping in this month and we're excited to get her connected and shepherding students!
Our big summer event is Challenge Conference - July 12-18. Challenge only happens every other year, and is open to our current high school students (those students who are currently assigned to high school small groups). Challenge combines the best of a conference, missions trip, and summer camp into a life-changing week! We're hosting an info meeting on January 18, during 3rd service (11:15am) in room 105 for parents and students to get more info.
We've got lots more in store for 2026, so stay tuned!
- Pastor Rich
