Our Mission, Values & Vision
Openness to Diversity and Generosity of Heart
For most of the congregation’s forty-year history, it has been racially diverse and practiced gender equality in leadership. The openness to diversity and generosity of heart displayed by these choices has led to a willingness to embrace all who worship with us, no matter their struggles or depth of faith.
Recognizing the Talents of Children
At Crosscreek people are valued no matter their age or ability. Children, youth, and adults share worship leadership roles each week. We offer age-appropriate programming for children that includes a special moment in worship just for them and thematic worship activity bags. Youth are offered faith-formative fellowship and Bible study. Adults of all ages find encouragement for faith through worship, Sunday School classes, and mid-week opportunities for faith formation.
Membership, Theology and Baptist Identity
Recognizing the variety of practices among the Christian traditions, Crosscreek receives as members people who profess faith in Jesus as Savior, regardless of the way they were baptized. All who come to faith while at Crosscreek are baptized by immersion during a service of worship.
Learn More About Crosscreek Membership
We believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God and is authoritative for our lives and faith.
Crosscreek is part of the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship and Alabama Cooperative Baptist Fellowship. We cherish the historic Baptist principles of the separation of church and state, local church autonomy, and the priesthood of the believer.
Worship
“Warm liturgical” best characterizes worship at Crosscreek. With robed clergy, weekly litanies, and attention to the seasons of the church year, Crosscreek seeks to honor God with well-planned and historically rooted worship. Both familiar and new hymns, meaningful children’s moments, and joyful fellowship, along with informal attire, combine with the liturgy to create an inviting and comfortable atmosphere of worship.
What We Value
- We Value Being Inviting
- We will lavishly welcome those who join us to worship, learn, and serve.
- We will move beyond welcome to a stance of invitation, seeking out those who are without authentic community and lost in the milieu of modern life.
- Each and every contact we have with those who are not yet a part of our fellowship will communicate a warm and embracing community, sharing our belief that all have value in God’s kingdom.
- We Value Acceptance
