What are the beliefs of the Wesleyan church?
Knowing what a church believes is the first and most important step to finding a church home. Our statement of faith is outlined on the “Beliefs” page of the “About Us” section on this site. Read it carefully and if you have further questions, please contact us at office@crosswindsonline.org or through this website.
What are Crosswinds services like?
You can expect a casual but worshipful setting, where the word of God is communicated through a combination of relevant bible teaching, live music, scripture reading, prayer and sacrament. It is our hope that the hour we spend together each week will only be the beginning of your worship experience. .
What programs are available for children?
