Summer is a great opportunity for students to connect with friends, meet new friends, and have exciting new opportunities. July is chocked full of chances for you to experience Christ in a real way. Sunday nights at Summer Crossroads and Cornerstone you'll have fun playing games and seeing your friends. The teaching will be about the Parables of Jesus and how to learn from them to grow in Christ. Some of the high schoolers are gathering on Wednesday nights to study the book of Philippians, this is a great way to learn how to understand the Bible.

 

The Beach Week, West Virginia Missions Trip, and Rehoboth Beach Trip give you an opportunity to experience Christ and fellowship outside of your normal comfort zone. The spots on the Rehoboth Beach Trip are going fast, this is a great opportunity to invite a friend to see what Crossroads/Cornerstone is about!

 

If you are in town, you won't want to miss this opportunities!
