Service Production Team
The service production team is responsible for the audio, visual, and online components of the worship service. Right now, this is primarily just managing the live stream of the service to YouTube and Facebook, but we are looking for folks with ideas to improve the service experience as well.

Worship Folder Team
Worship folder preparation entails updating a Google Doc template with the current week’s Scripture texts and sermon theme (provided by the Pastor/lectionary), hymns (provided by the music coordinator), and weekly announcements (provided by the Leader Team) and editing to fit the worship folder format. The edited version is converted to a PDF document and saved to a Google Drive so that it can be printed on Sunday morning at the Ministry Center.

One primary way Crossroads can support our families with children is to offer Sunday School. We are looking for anyone who is interested in teaching Sunday School class at least once a month. They will work in conjunction with our current Sunday School teacher to develop and lead the classes, which take place on the first and third Sundays of each month during the worship service. The time commitment for this role is estimated to be approximately 3 hours per month, including preparation and teaching time. If you are interested in being part of a fun program and teaching some great kids who are interested in learning about Jesus, please contact Kristin Seeger!
