Good Friday Events in Point Place

The churches in Point Place, including CrossPoint, are joining together for two Good Friday Events.

The first event is our Cross Walk. This begins at 11:00 am at the Lighthouse on Summit Street. Parking is available along Summit and at Cullen Park. We start at the Lighthouse, and then walk with the cross to Messiah Lutheran Church, Point Place United Church of Christ, and then on to St. John the Baptist Catholic Church, where the walk ends. There will be short reflections at each stop. There is parking available at each stop if you would like to use your vehicle. Join us for this contemplative time.

The other joint event is our Community Good Friday Service that begins at 7:00 pm and is held at RiverPoint Ministries United Methodist Church on 131st Street. This is always a deeply moving and participatory service, and it is led by Pastor Mike, Pastor Jon, and Pastor Amy. The service is one hour long.

As we journey towards Easter during the time we call Lent, we will be looking at and learning to practice Biblical practices called “Spiritual Disciplines.” These practices help us cultivate and experience the presence of Jesus, who asks us: “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” (Matthew 11:28)

Here’s how we’re doing it:

1. Put one or more spiritual disciplines into practice in your life as we learn about them each week.
2. Consider giving up something during Lent, to help you slow down and contemplate Jesus and hear his voice.
3. Read through all four Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John) between Ash Wednesday and Easter. You will find a reading schedule below.

Join us this Sunday morning at 10:30 am (online or in person) to hear about these spiritual practices, and to worship with us!

CrossPoint’s Leadership Team has developed a theme for 2025: “Living Expectantly”

It is important for us to live our lives EXPECTING that God will work and move among us. We should EXPECT the presence of Jesus, since He is our Emmanuel. We should EXPECT the power of God, since He is a miracle-working God. We should EXPECT growth in us and in our church, since God wants to build His kingdom here.

Join us this Sunday morning at 10:30 am (online or in person) and worship our mighty God with us!

Advent begins on Sunday, December 1. Advent is a time of expectation, remembering, preparation, and looking ahead.

We mark the passing of each of the four weeks of Advent by lighting a candle with a specific meaning every Sunday. They are the candles of Hope, Peace, Joy, and Love.

These themes help us re-live the emotions and feelings of the people of Israel as they longed for deliverance from oppression and darkness.

Join us each Sunday of Advent as we anticipate the arrival of Jesus as a child, and his arrival in the future when he comes again!
