We welcome you to come and share in
the excitement of being a part of the church family at Cross Points
Church.
You will
find the people here warm and receptive, as well as eager to be the extended
body of Christ to the community around us.
Our
desire is to bring people together from all over the Kansas City area to unite in worship and see
lives changed while telling the powerful message of the love that Jesus has for
us. It’s a love that caused Him to die on the cross for our sin; that
gives hope through the power of the resurrection; that sets in motion our
passion to live for Him.
Whether
you are new to the area or in search of a new church home, Cross Points
Church has over 20
ministries in place that serve the entire family and provide numerous
opportunities for involvement. Our Church is about building caring
relationships, healthy families, and serving communities.
You and
your family are invited to join us as we share in the life-changing impact of
scripture and the life-changing influence of being a true follower of Jesus
Christ.
It is
never easy to visit a new church for the first time, so we want to be as
helpful as we can to make your experience a good one.
Let’s
talk about dress. We want you to
feel comfortable. After all, we are thrilled that you’re joining us and
want you to be more focused on the service than what you’re wearing. Some
people dress up and some choose to dress down. Come the way that you
feel most comfortable.
Worship
This time
is set aside for communicating with God from our hearts. We have live
upbeat worship with guitars, drums -the works, as well as intimate songs of
worship. Everyone worships in their own unique way – for many, that means
singing, clapping and raising their hands, and for others it means quietly
reflecting on the words. At Cross
Points Church,
you’re welcome to do what comes from the heart in praise to God. We provide
words for all songs on the main screen at the front of the auditorium, so you
never have to wonder what is being sung.
Offering
Each of our
members will take time to worship God through the giving of tithes and
offerings on their own at our offering boxes at each door. As a guest,
please do not feel any pressure to give. This is an act of worship for
our regular attendees, allowing them to thank God for all of the great work he
is doing in their lives. It also gives Cross Points
Church the means to reach
more people for Christ in the future.
The
Message
In every
service you will hear a relevant, straightforward message that is based on
Scripture and is designed to be helpful in your everyday life. We trust
that these messages will help you develop a growing, vibrant relationship with
Jesus Christ and provide a strong biblical foundation for your life.
Communion
We
celebrate communion together on designated Sunday Mornings. Anyone can
participate in this time of reflection and prayer – as long they’ve made the
decision to follow Jesus Christ. The juice and bread that we share
represent the life He gave up so that our sins could be forgiven.
After
the Service
Visit the Coffee Shop
As a
guest, you’ll be asked to fill out a Visitor Card during the service, which can
be filled out and placed it in the offering or dropped off at Information
Booth in the Lobby. Then stop by The Northstar Coffee
