New Member Preparation
Adults and youth who are curious about the Christian faith, and may be considering what it might mean to formally become a member of Crossroads United Church, are invited to attend the "Faith Foundations" course with Rev. Cari. Offered several times each year, this 5-week course is a first look at Christian theology and spiritual practices. Questions such as "how do we know God?" and "Who is Jesus, anyway?" and "What is the purpose of the Church?" are explored, along with six marks of discipleship: Bible reading, spiritual friendship, worship, prayer, serving and giving.
This course is also a prerequisite to having a child baptized or reaffirming one's baptismal faith (also known as "being confirmed") at Crossroads United Church.
The course will be offered next beginning in late September 2010. Please contact Rev. Cari if you would like to participate.
