"The compelling and satisfying beauty of the lord"

saturday, november 14 | 9:00-11:30a

Bombarded by worldly messages to maximize your personal beauty and youth at any cost? Crippled by anxieties and fears? Join us to consider the source of all beauty, our great God, and how gazing upon His beauty is the true desire of our soul and the answer to quell all of our fears. Together we will enjoy a light breakfast, receive Bible teaching, and worship our beautiful God through song.

reflecting the BEAUTY of our creator:
women's creative activities for fall 2026 & early 2027

Because we are made in the image of our Creator, He gives us abilities and inspiration to create art and beautify our world. This may be expressed in handicrafts, making food, moving our bodies, or enjoying the gifts of other creators. In that spirit we have set up 9 varied opportunities for the women of CrossWay to enjoy the Beauty of our Creator and the creativity that He gives us. Activities are designed for the women of CrossWay, 18 and older. Space will be limited depending on the nature of the activity. Please register and then join us for one or more of these creative activities this year.

More information will be added as each event gets closer.

Registration is necessary and opens six weeks prior to each event.
