Worship

"How does one worship God in an age of confusion and suspicion about the very traditions which provide the means of prayer and liturgy we have? Is the vision of human life and the world which is actually being celebrated in our churches faithful to the revelation of God in Jesus? Can Christian liturgy actually address the situation of our time and place -- in an age some have called an age of abandonment by God? Or, in specifically North American terms, can Christian worship survive a consumerist culture of exaggeration and forgetfulness?" Don E. Saliers, Worship as Theology*.

Worship is at the heart of the Christian community. At Crossroads, both our service to God and God's grace toward us are lifted up, along with many other "permanent tensions" in the life of faith. At the centre of our life in Christian community is this opportunity God has given us - across all boundaries that divide us, and in the midst of all the challenges our culture presents us - to join our hearts, heads and voices to focus on God's presence and activity in our lives and the life of our world. Please join us for worship at Crossroads United Church.

We worship every Sunday at 10:30 am at 7655 120th Street (Scott Road) in North Delta.

During Lent (February 24 to March 24, 2010) we also worship every Wednesday evening from 7-7:30.
