Those that be planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of our God - Psalms 92:13
The Tree of Life
The Tree of Life Services exists to help engraft those planted by God into our church family so that they will become fruitful. We believe that all those that come to us must be handled with the same care God has for them. In the Tree of Life a dedicated team who understand the engrafting process are here to help each individual become a functioning part of our church family.And if some of the branches be broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and with them partake of the root and fatness of the olive tree – Romans 11:17
Finding your Place
The first part of engrafting is preparing a place for you. We want you to know that you belong here. God Himself carved out a place for you. In fact, He has made Crossing Church a perfect fit to provide for the needs of your soul. The Tree of Life provides the guidance needed to match you with the ministry services available for you and your family.
Building Relationships
The next step is the binding process. God has designed people to walk with you. Relationships are built with those who will speak to your destiny. The Apostle Paul had people appointed by God to Minister to him when He joined the Church. Ananias was assigned to pray for him (Acts 9:10-18). Barnabas walked Paul through the process of becoming an active member (Acts 9:26-28), The Individual assigned to you will help to answer questions about the church. They will pray for you and be a friend to you. They are there for you as you walk through membership and into discipleship.
Ministry Involvement
The final step is the loosing. Our purpose is to release others to operate in their purpose. The Tree of Life along with members of the Crossing leadership is here to help discover what God has for each individual. As a part of our family we invite you to become involved in what God is doing here at Crossing and let Crossing be involved what God is doing in your life. There is a place here for you to both give of your talents and receive from us.
