This Week at Cross Church | Hope for America
Sunday Morning, 2014 Summer Freedom Celebration
Our theme for our 2014 Summer Freedom Celebration is: HOPE FOR AMERICA…The Next Great Awakening. We do hope you will be part of one of our services on our five campuses this coming Sunday. This is one of my favorite Sundays of the year, and I want you to join us.
Our theme this year is one that each of us can be excited about. There is one thing people never get too much of in this life – hope! Because of our trust in our Sovereign God and His plan for everything, we know we can have hope.
Our great hope is in the Lord and what He wants to do in our life, our church, and in our nation. Personally, the hope I have in America comes from my deep conviction that God is calling us to extraordinary prayer in asking Him for the next Great Awakening. This Sunday, you will learn from the Word and church history. It will be a great morning to God’s Glory; therefore, all week long, invite people to come to church with you.
Sunday Evening, Fireworks at the Crosses
Last year, an estimated 10,000 people attended this grand experience. Everything in the late afternoon moves us to three fabulous experiences:
Baptism at the Crosses: Last year, I was privileged to personally baptize over 100 people. If you have met Jesus Christ as your Savior and Lord and have never been baptized by immersion, please register online or call Sheila Maestri at 479-271-7799. We will provide counsel about baptism and membership in our fellowship of believers. We take this very seriously, and each person is counseled personally by one of our pastors. Give me the privilege of baptizing you this Sunday night.
Patriotic Moments with Veterans: Annually, we experience some powerful moments of patriotism through songs, the pledge of allegiance led by veterans of our Armed Forces, and recognition and appreciation for their service to our great nation.
Fireworks: Following our special worship, baptism, and patriotic moments, we will experience a great fireworks show. I am telling you, do not miss it!
You won’t regret joining us for the entire evening! Bring others. Make it fun. Enjoy it. Food is available to purchase or you are welcome to bring your own.
So this week, share the hope! Bring others to experience the hope we have in Christ.
Yours for the Great Commission,
Ronnie W. Floyd
