The Purpose of CrossSeekers

The purpose of CrossSeekers is:

1)
To Make Disciples of All Nations - Disciples are fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ. We were created to know and follow Jesus. There is no greater joy! Jesus Christ is our Savior, Lord, and Treasure.
2) To Be Genuine Spiritual Family - God's desires for us to live within a healthy, joyful, and Christ centered spiritual family. Jesus and His followers talked, played, worked, worshiped, prayed, and served together.
3) To Join God in His Global Purposes - God is actively redeeming people (through His Son) from all around the world. He invites us to join Him in His purposes. What an amazing privilege!

Welcome to the Fall of 07


Hey CrossSeekers,
I’m looking forward to a great semester! I sense that God is going to do some amazing stuff at CMU. My hope and prayer is that many come to faith in Jesus. I’m also very excited about disciple making. I hope to expand on this concept in the months to come. What does in mean to make disciples and how do you do it? See Matthew 28:19 and think on these things!
We have some cool things on tap for this semester including our Fall Ohiopyle Mini-Retreat coming up on Sunday and Monday of the Labor Day weekend. Check out the calendar! I look forward to seeing each of you very soon.
by His grace alone - for His glory alone,
doug
