Learn More

Crossings Kids are encouraged to wear their pajamas to church on Sunday, December 19 for our Sunday Serve! During both the 9:30 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. services, kids will work with their Sunday School class to assemble overnight bags for City Cares, an emergency night shelter.

Crossings Kids will also collect donations of pajamas for the City Cares Night Shelter. If you want to donate, please send your child to church with an extra pair of pajamas!

We look forward to serving with your kids!
