Niceville Campus eLetter
From our Missions Pastor
Every summer is absolutely PACKED with opportunities for the people of Crosspoint to act as Helpful Neighbors and Kingdom Builders with mission partners inside and outside the church! In the next 3 months, we have so many Kingdom projects and opportunities to celebrate. This may sound like a list of ‘things to do’ or a bunch of numbers (because that’s what it is), but each one represents the people of Crosspoint living as disciples in our community and our world, and that’s worth celebrating! So buckle up, here we go! This is what the people of Crosspoint are doing this summer:
- Regular trips to local jails to run Celebrate Recovery Inside
- 8 foreign mission trips with over 100 disciples participating
- An ongoing thrift store ministry that provides low-cost essentials to the community and uses the power of volunteer service to fund mission projects
- Our local student mission trip, Mission Northwest, averages around 200 students, 45 leaders, 11 mission teams, and over 25 individual mission projects (you can learn more about this in the student section of this e-letter)
- Partnership with Vacation Bible School to bless our friends at Westonwood Ranch (you can learn about this in the VBS section of this e-letter)
- We distribute roughly 10,000 pounds of food through our Grocery Giveaway ministry twice monthly. We serve approximately 175 families at each Grocery Giveaway.
- Launching a brand new ministry to care for widows and widowers
- Hosting a back-to-school resource fair for our community (July 20!)
We don’t say this to brag, though we are proud of the people of Crosspoint! We say all of this to celebrate the great work that God does as we continue to live out our unique callings and play our part in God’s great story. We’re so grateful for how God empowers and sends each of us, and we can’t wait to see you out there doing good in Jesus' name!
Stay Hydrated, Get Prayed Up, and Let’s Gooooooooooooo
