Tribe Levi: Leviticus 8 will be our focus this coming weekend. If you missed last weekend be sure to listen online http://www.aboutccc.com/tribe-levi-sacrifice/.
We have around 100 folks participating in some form of sermon based small group! You can still get on board. Even if you are not able to join a group I hope you’ll take the study guides from the website and use them in your personal devotions or family devotions. Let’s get all that God has for us from Leviticus! J
Sermon-Based Small Groups: Sermon-Based small groups will start this weekend! These short-term (6-8 week) small groups are a great way to meet other Crossroads attenders and dig deeper into the messages heard on Sunday mornings.
