Because of the predicted bad weather tomorrow morning, we are canceling our in-person service. Stay home and stay safe!

But this week is your chance to join our wonderful online family, because we will be streaming our worship service online at 10:30 am as normal. Steve Pennington will be bringing the next message in our “Changed” series, as he shares how being changed by the Holy Spirit is something that needs to happen on a daily basis.

You can join our online service at 10:30 am by going to https://facebook.com/toledocrosspoint.

If you wish to contribute to the needs of CrossPoint, just go to our website at icrosspoint.com and click the “Give Online” button.

Join us for our Advent Series Songs of Advent, where we will join in the songs of Zechariah, angels, Mary, and Simeon found in the first two chapters of Luke! Advent is a special time of year of expectation, anticipation, and celebration of the coming Messiah Jesus.

We hope to see you in person or online as Pastor Mike and Pastor Robbie take us into these songs to draw us into deeper worship of God while gaining perspective of how the family of Jesus, angels, and a prophet in Jerusalem all viewed the arrival of Jesus Messiah.

Worship with us in person each Sunday morning at 10:30 am at 4212 Onondaga Ave. in Point Place, or online at our Facebook page!

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.

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!
