August 19th we will have an opportunity for our church family to come alongside and sponsor 15 more children in Rwanda, in our sister community of Kayonza. Would you join me in praying that God would use our church family to sponsor more kids? Would you prayerfully consider sponsoring a child in Kayonza through Africa New Life? Sponsorship changes lives and we saw that first hand. Thank you for your generosity globally.
On August 26th we will have a great celebration where we come together as a church family and celebrate what God is doing. If you would like to know more about baptism, or would like to get baptized, please connect with Pastor Joel at joel@crossridgesherwood.com. We’ll have a BBQ as well to celebrate together.
It's that time again...time for Fire and Meat! Come enjoy some great meat and some fire at Pastor Joel's house on Thursday August 9th at 6:30. Connect with some of your friends and meet some new ones at this great men's event. Open to all men!

We believe God wants to care for our needs and give us enough to share with others. Money is most valuable when it is put to work helping people. As the church, it is our privilege to give generously to reach and help those in need - locally, regionally, and abroad.
