What’s Happening @ Crossroads 10/12/25
Outdoor Worship Night & Bonfire~Friday, October 17: Join us for a powerful night of worship under the stars! We’ll gather around the bonfire on the lawn at 6:30 PM, lifting our voices in praise and enjoying time together as a church family. Bring a chair or blanket—and invite a friend!
DivorceCare – Weekly Support Group: If you or someone you know is hurting from the pain of separation or divorce, DivorceCare is a safe place to find support and healing. This weekly support group meets Wednesday evenings at 6:30 PM in the upstairs conference room, beginning October 15. This may not be for you—but you KNOW someone who needs this. Bring them. Walk with them. Help them find hope again. Contact John Cook with questions or to sign up at (219)308-7541.
Shepherding Elders/Congregational Care: In an effort to better care for the congregation, the elders each have a “flock” that they will be following up with over the next several months via phone, email, or letter to check in with your family. Likewise, if you have a concern or need, you can always contact your “shepherding elder,” as well as a pastor or staff member.
The “flocks” are sorted alphabetically
with the elder who is shepherding:
Terry Cherep: Aar-Bur
Jack Rudenga: Burk-Eg
Norm Vugteveen: Er-Huf
John Cook: Hui-Mat
Andy Fejes: Mc-Rok
Dawn Stammis: Rot-Triez
Kathy Van Zyl: Ty-Z
