CELEBRATE RECOVERY
Ministry Leader - Mike Glair
CELEBRATE RECOVERY MEETS THURSDAYS AT 7 PM IN PERSON
Celebrate Recovery is a Christ-centered recovery program with foundations firmly established in Biblical truth.
The 12 Steps with accompanying Scriptures and the 8 Principles based on the Beatitudes offer participants a clear path of salvation and discipleship; bringing hope, freedom, sobriety, healing, and the opportunity to give back one day at a time through our one and only true Higher Power, Jesus Christ.
The 12 Steps and the 8 Principles work seamlessly together, tying historical recovery to timeless Biblical teaching.
Celebrate Recovery meets on Thursday nights at 7pm with a free will offering dinner the last Thursday of the month beginning at 6pm.

TEEN CENTER
In October 2019 our Youth Ministry leaders opened the door to the Stockbridge Teen Center located in the Stockbridge Activity Center (SAC) located on Elizabeth St. Our teen center is run by our Youth Ministry leadership and volunteers and is funded through grants, church body and community support. The Teen Center is open M-F from 2:30 pm - 5 pm and follows the school schedule.
Our mission is to create an environment where middle and high school students can connect, belong and grow as individuals; to provide a safe, fun place to go after school and offer opportunities to develop in both meaningful and practical ways.
DUE TO COVID-19 THE TEEN CENTER IS CLOSED
BRIDGE BUILDERS
"The greatest among you will be your servant."
Matt. 23:11NIV
"The King will reply, "Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me."
Galatians 6:10 NIV
Bridge Builders is a local outreach ministry serving community members by offering extra set of helping hands fulfilling household tasks for those, who for many reasons, might not be able to complete themselves. We help with various needs including leaf raking, yard clean up, minor home repairs, transportation, errands food delivery, etc.
Every Spring and Fall we organize a day of service for our church body to help our 'neighbors' as well as fulfilling other service opportunities as they arise throughout the year. If you are interested in being kept in the loop and volunteering, please contact the Bridge Builder Ministry Coordinator, Jodelle at jodellesparksc3@gmail.com and she will put you on our email list.
If you or someone you know needs a helping hand through our ministry, you can fill a Needs Request Form and someone will follow-up with you. Further if you would like to financially support our ministry, all donations can be made through our GIVING page.
BIG BUCK BASH
Every year on November 15th, opening day of deer season, Crossroads Community Church hosts the 'Big Buck Bash' drawing in 1000+ hunters and community members from around the area. Bucks are hung and generous prizes are given to the top scorers. All that attend the event are provided with food from 9 am to 9pm.
Our community means a lot to Crossroads Community Church. It is such an honor to bless them, share Christ's love through our service, and build relationships in an atmosphere of love.
VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL
We love our kids! Every year, the second week in August, our church grounds are taken over by 40- 60 kids from our community. Vacation Bible School is a week filled with games, worship, Bible teaching & crafts. The purpose of VBS is to encourage children to discover who Jesus is and what He means for them in their lives.
SAMARITAN'S PURSE
Samaritan’s Purse is a nondenominational evangelical Christian organization providing spiritual and physical aid to hurting people around the world. Since 1970, Samaritan’s Purse has helped meet needs of people who are victims of war, poverty, natural disasters, disease, and famine with the purpose of sharing God’s love through His Son, Jesus Christ. The organization serves the Church worldwide to promote the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. (https://www.samaritanspurse.org/our-ministry/about-us/)
Once a year (or more!) all are invited to participate in a mission trip to serve as disaster relief workers wherever it is needed the most. Our Samaritan's Purse mission trips have taken us to Texas, Florida, Dominican Republic, and even as close as SE Michigan. It is a great way to serve the Lord in word and in DEED. Though our volunteers are there to serve those most affected by a natural disaster, they also find a deeper connection with the Lord and with those that they serve alongside.
We tentatively have our next trip planned for the end of February 2021.
Would you like more information? Contact Rob Ames at rob@c3stockbridge.org and he will be happy to fill you in and put you on our contact list for these mission trips.
