Generations project Updates
God is moving, and it's exciting to watch the Generations Project come to life! Every prayer, every gift, and every helping hand is building something that will impact lives for generations to come. Construction is underway, and there are many ways you can be part of what God is doing. Continue praying, giving, and serving as we build a place where future generations will hear the Gospel, grow in their faith, and experience the love of Christ. Thank you for investing in what God is building at Cross Point Church. The best is yet to come! For more updates to serve the workers, stay updated in the app group chat.
KIDS SERMON NOTES
Level Up Sunday means some of our WOW Kids are taking the next step into the sanctuary and while they may be moving up, we never want them to stop leaning in! 
Our new Kids Sermon Notes are designed to help students stay engaged during Sunday’s message in a way that makes sense for them. They can listen, write, draw, find Scripture, jot down questions, keep track of words they hear, and think about how the message applies to their own lives. And the conversation doesn’t have to end when Sunday service does! Students can take their notes home OR leave them at church and come back to them Wednesday night at CPC Catalyst Kids. Our leaders can use what they wrote to review the sermon, talk through questions they had, and help them dig even deeper. Because our goal isn't simply to teach kids how to sit through a church service. We want to help raise a generation that listens, asks questions, opens their Bible, understands why they believe what they believe, and learns how to follow Jesus for themselves. Kids Sermon Notes will be available to grab in the foyer every Sunday! We’re praying our students don’t just level up in school this year, hey level up in their walk with Jesus!

faith in the framework
After service on August 30th, we invite everyone to join us in writing HIS LIVING WORD on the framework of the expansion walls. Before these walls are covered, we’re inviting you to help fill them with the truth and promises of God’s Word. If you contributed to the Piece by Piece Fundraiser "FRAMING" - THANK YOU!! You are so valued and appreciated! We will have a special spot on the baptism wall where you can write scripture to show our gratitude! Everyone is welcome to write on any frame, in any room!
Together, GOD is building more than walls, HE is creating a foundation of faith for every life that will be changed, every baptism that will be celebrated, and every generation that will worship here.

What is 'Piece x piece' fundraiser?
As we continue completing Phase One of the Generations Project, our Piece by Piece Fundraiser gives you the opportunity to be a part of the build... literally, piece by piece!
Instead of simply giving toward the overall project, you can choose to contribute toward any specific aspect of the build as we work our way through Phase One. Whether it’s framing, electrical, plumbing, drywall, flooring, fixtures, or another part of the project, every piece gets us one step closer, no contribution is too small! It all matters!
And a HUGE thank you to everyone who gave toward the framing! Because of your generosity, that piece of the project is being completed, and now we get to keep building together. One piece. One phase. One generation investing in the next.

prepare for the upcoming series "41"
Coming September 13, we're beginning something we're calling “41.” Throughout Scripture, we see God use seasons of 40 to prepare His people for what comes next. But our goal isn't simply to make it through 40 days. We're asking a bigger question: What will be different on Day 41?
For 40 days, we're challenging our church family to walk or run one mile every day while listening to a short daily devotional created by people right here in our church that you can listen to straight from our Podcast. We'll intentionally step away from distractions, fix our eyes on Jesus, search our hearts, deepen our prayer lives, practice discipline, and learn to walk by the Spirit.
This isn't about becoming runners. It's about becoming people who intentionally walk with God.
So between now and September 13, start preparing. Find your walking shoes. Think about when you can carve out that time each day. Maybe even start walking a little now. Because 40 days is the challenge, but Day 41 lifestyle is the mission... the calling. The goal isn't to finish. It's to keep walking.
Make sure you are following us on Podcast (Spotify, Apple, iHeart, Amazon, etc.) or Download the app!
