CrossLife Community Church

No matter who you are, what you’ve done, or where you’ve been, it’s always the perfect time to release your heart to God. We’re here to help you on your journey with God and would love to see you this Sunday at 10:00 am. CrossLife Community Church exists for the purpose of helping people release their hearts to God. We do this through Bible-based teaching in our Sunday worship services and weekly Connect Groups, as well as through serving our community. We've partnered with various organizations in the community to provide school supplies, Thanksgiving meals and Christmas gifts to local families, in addition to sponsoring fun events like Easter Egg hunts at our local elementary school. We can't wait to meet you!
