This Week at Cross Church | Summer Ends, the Fall Begins

Labor Day weekend sounds the clear signal: Summer is ending and the fall is beginning. It is time for each of us to embrace this inevitable moment and season.

Relating to the Summer Program of Giving

For fifteen weeks, we have held up a financial goal for our church to meet during this season. What we began on Memorial Day Sunday, we conclude this Sunday on Labor Day. Our present status after the first fifteen weeks:

Our 16-Week Goal: $5.6 million

Received through 15 weeks of giving: $5,169,294

Our need this Sunday to meet our goal: $430,706

We praise God and thank each of you for giving during these summer weeks. With the irregularity of church attendance during the summer, God has seen us through. This Sunday, join us in either catching up from the Sundays you missed in giving or join us in seeing this goal reached for God’s glory. This goal represents changed lives, making disciples, and advancing the Gospel locally, regionally, statewide, nationally, and internationally.

Relating to the Fall Before Us

It is time for our Cross Church Family to become counter-cultural in our church attendance. The culture declares that the infrequency of church attendance is unavoidable. This flies in the face of God’s Word that places a huge priority of Sunday in the life of Christ-followers. We need to embrace Sunday again.

Let’s work together to see volunteerism explode at each Cross Church campus. We can all serve somewhere this fall. Your volunteerism can be realized weekly, on a rotation, or seasonally. Find your place and engage in volunteering somewhere in ministry through Cross Church. You can find more information here.

Relating to This Sunday

These are exciting days in Northwest Arkansas. School has begun. Football is in the air. The Razorbacks kick off their season this Saturday. Our series will continue on Labor Day Sunday. Please join us and bring someone with you. We are speaking to some of the greatest needs in the American culture.

Now is the Time to Lead,
