DO YOU WONDER WHAT YOU’RE GOING TO DO WITH THE REST OF YOUR LIFE?
Does all your striving, all your efforts to keep up, to stand out, to be noticed, to make someone proud only lead to being tired, exhausted, burnt-out, worn-out, fatigued, and weary?
IF SO, THEN JESUS HAS SOMETHING HE WANTS YOU TO HEAR…
‘Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.’
JOIN US THIS SUMMER AT UNITE AND LET JESUS GIVE YOU THE REST OF YOUR LIFE – FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE.

Crossview is joining World Vision to sponsor kids in D.R. Congo. “Chosen” is when World Vision works with our church and allows each person/family to save a child in D.R. Congo. Sponsoring a child costs $39 / month. This donation impacts the life of a kid plus four more in their community. This is the cool part: the kids in D.R. Congo are empowered to choose their sponsor. This is how it will work:
Sign-Up online by clicking the button below and submit your photo online.
Then your photo is sent to D.R. Congo and a kid chooses you.
On a later Sunday, we will celebrate together as a church as we reveal who chose you. If you can’t make it you will still find out.
Questions, please contact the office or call 507-387-5606.
Nursery and PreK programming will be available. We’ll have activity bags for the older kids and they are welcome in the Easter service (We also have TV’s in the lobby if the kiddos get too squirmy). We’ll have an Easter Egg Hunt for the kids after each service. Also during our Easter services, we will celebrate together as we have a Reveal Sunday where those who signed up to sponsor a child in D.R. Congo will find out which child chose them. The services will be in person and online.

The Stations of the Cross is a series of 8-14 artistic representations or devotional stations commemorating the events leading up to and including the crucifixion of Jesus Christ on Good Friday. These stations typically include Jesus' condemnation, carrying of the cross, falls, meeting with his mother Mary, and crucifixion, among others. Observing the Stations of the Cross is a common devotional practice for Christians during Lent, Holy Week, and particularly on Good Friday, as it allows believers to reflect on the suffering and sacrifice of Jesus for humanity's redemption.
The Stations of the Cross will be available Friday, March 29 from 9:00am-7:30pm. You are welcome to come and go as you please.
Questions? Please contact the church office or call 507-387-5606
Join us at Crossview for our Palm Sunday Service (with a palm parade for the kids) at 10:00am. We will have programming for Nursery - PreK only. Kids Kindergarten and older are welcome in the service (coloring sheets & crayons provided).
On the first Palm Sunday, Jesus chose to enter into Jerusalem, riding on a donkey. This event marked the beginning of the final week of his life, known as Holy Week. As Jesus entered the city, crowds gathered, waving palm branches and laying them on the road before him, shouting "Hosanna!" This act fulfilled the prophecy in the Old Testament about the Messiah entering Jerusalem in this manner. However, Jesus knew that his entrance would ultimately lead to his arrest, trial, and crucifixion. Nonetheless, this momentous event symbolized Jesus' role as the long-awaited Messiah and demonstrated his humility and commitment to his mission of salvation.
That is why Crossview is joining World Vision on Palm Sunday to do a Chosen Sunday. A Chosen Sunday is when World Vision will come to Crossview and give each person/family an opportunity to save a child in D.R. Congo. This is the cool part: the kids in D.R. Congo are empowered to choose their sponsor. This is how it will work:
While at church you can sign up to sponsor a child. And then you get your picture taken or submit your photo online. If you couldn’t make it to church just click the button below. (You can sign-up until 8pm on March 24).
Then your photo is sent to D.R. Congo and a kid chooses you.
On Easter Sunday, we will celebrate together as we have a Reveal Sunday where you’ll find out who chose you. If you can’t make it you will still find out.

Bring scripture to life with Jesus’ teachings in Matthew 25
You are welcome to the 10:00 am service on Sunday, March 17 as we see how in Matthew 25 we are chosen to live out the Gospel. This is a great way to get family and friends involved. Sunday, March 17 is the start of The Matthew 25 Challenge. The Matthew 25 Challenge is a week-long experience for churches. For seven days, we, at Crossview, will step out of our comfort zones through a daily sacrificial challenge, bringing to life Jesus’ call in Matthew 25. During the week, participants receive text messages with a daily challenge, stories of children around the world, and discussion and prayer points.
Daily challenges help open people’s eyes to the realities that many children and communities around the world face. Challenges are family-friendly and include activities like giving up your bed and sleeping on the floor like many refugees do around the world, skipping a meal like hungry children do every day, and only drinking water for one day as you learn about the global water crisis.

This Soup & Chili Cook-Off is raising funds to send our students and leaders to this conference. You won’t want to miss being a part of this annual all-church event! Here are TWO great ways to get involved:
