Habits of Grace
Simple rhythms for enjoying Jesus - It’s not about doing more but about making space.

We will be exploring spiritual disciplines as simple rhythms for enjoying Jesus. We will look at disciplines in our faith that are not about making us do more or accomplish more but actually allow us to enjoy time and space with Jesus.

Bike for Congo - Winter Edition

JOIN US FOR ALL OF FEBRUARY

Did you know that some people in DR Congo travel over 50 kilometers (31 miles) on a bicycle to a hospital, while sick or injured? And what's even harder to believe is that when they arrive at the hospital, limited medicines, clean water, and medical training often prevent a person from getting better. People in DR Congo face many challenges when they need medical care, but there is a way you can help.

The Biking for Congo Challenge is Paul Carlson Partnership’s annual peer-to-peer fundraising event to support healthcare in DR Congo.

We invite you to join us for the month of February in raising money for our Paul Carlson Partnership!

Hope in a Box - All of Lent

Food is essential for everyone. When these needs aren’t met, life becomes much harder—and challenges that might otherwise be manageable can feel impossible to overcome. At Crossview Covenant, we believe God calls us to care for one another, especially those facing difficult circumstances.

That’s why we partnered with Community Covenant to create Hope in a Box: a simple way to support people in our community and remind them they are not alone—that someone sees them, cares for them, and believes they can make it through whatever life brings.

This year, we’re partnering with ECHO Food Shelf to expand this effort.

To make it easy for more people to participate, we’re extending Hope in a Box throughout the entire season of Lent (February 18–April 5). You’re invited to purchase boxed food items and bring them to church. Each Sunday, a trailer will be parked outside Rosa Parks where you can drop off your donations. AND because it's part of the March drive, all donations are matched!

At the end of the season on April 11, 2026 we’ll gather together to decorate the boxes with stickers and messages of love and hope before they’re delivered and you can stick around for lunch.

We look forward to serving our community alongside you and sharing God’s love through these simple acts of kindness.


Newcomer Meet & Greet

Sunay, February 22, after both our 9:00 and 10:30 services

If you are newer to Crossview within the last 6-12 months, please join us after the 9am and 10:30am services on September 28. You'll get to meet a few of our staff, ask questions, and learn more about ministries at Crossview that can help you get connected, and resources to help you grow in your faith. Children are welcome.

It should last about 20 min and there will be beverages and refreshments.


Prayer & Worship Night and Chili/Soup Cook-off

Wednesday, March 18, 5:30-7:15

Join us for our Prayer & Worship Night AND Chili Cookoff Fundraiser on Wednesday, March 18!

Do you make a great chili or soup? We would love for you to share it with us!

We will begin our evening with a chili/soup meal from 5:30-6:30 and end our night with a prayer and worship time from 6:30-7:15 with hot cocoa and cookies after.

This event and the registration fee ($30) is a great way to help raise money for our youth for different events, mission trips and activities.

We will not have Wednesday Night Ministry this night.

Small Groups

Join a group today and grow in your faith and community tomorrow.

God has designed each of us to connect with other followers of Jesus. We can help lift one another up when things get tough, celebrate with each other during good times, and grow in our faith together. Small groups are one of the best ways to do this! You don’t need to be an expert in the Bible to be part of a small group - whether you are new to faith or a long-time Jesus-follower, small groups are for you! These groups regularly meet in places like coffee shops, living rooms, and kitchens.

Finding a Small Group

We would love to help connect you with a Small Group. To join a group, click on the "Find a Group Here" button below. Need more help, then click on "Small Group Interest Form" and we'll help you find a group that works for you. You can always Contact Pastor Libby Englehorn.


Volunteer & Make a Difference

One of the best ways to get connected is by serving!

We value not just growing in our faith but doing something with our faith! Serving within the walls of this church and (even more importantly) going out into the community and the world is a vital part of what God created us to do. When we serve and volunteer we are being Christ followers by doing what He did. It is how we show the world what the love of God is like. We serve inside and outside of the church, Sundays and all week long.

Take a Next Step and “Go Deeper”

We want everyone who comes to Crossview to connect to Jesus Christ. We do that by taking steps on our spiritual journey in four different areas of our spiritual lives in worship, community, serving, and giving generously. Jesus wants to work through us to bring hope and healing to our neighbors, friends, and those on the margins. Wherever you are on your faith journey, there is always a next step and a way to "go deeper." Connecting to Jesus transforms us, our families, neighborhoods, city and world!
