What's On the Go for Wednesday April 29th, 2026

Hello Crossing Church!

The Office hours for Pastor Andrew Porter, are Monday to Thursday 9:00 to 4:00 PM. You can also email him at andrew@thecrossingchurch.ca. 

The Deacon on Duty this week Maynard King. If you have any concerns or would like a visit or a phone call, please feel free to reach out to Pastor Andrew through the church office or to Maynard.

Praise God, our pews are full each Sunday. As a result, parking has become an issue. So, we are asking, if you are able, please park on Colville St or Road de Lux. This will help alleviate congestion and ensure access for everyone attending. If you are blocking another vehicle, kindly move your car as soon as the service is over. The facilities team will also help by having parking attendants on duty each week.

Please note - For the next 5 weeks (April 27 to May 29th) the office hours will be Monday - Wednesday 8:00 to 12:30 and Friday 8:00 to 12:00

Here are the events coming up this week:

On Saturday, May 2 from 10 am to 3 pm, we are having a clean up day at the church. If you have a few hours to spare, you can help us do a spring cleaning both inside and out (weather permitting).

On Sunday, May 3 at 10:30 am is our Worship Service. Jonathan will be preaching this Sunday as we will also have Communion during the service.

If you happen to miss our service, or you are unable to attend in person you can also check us out on Facebook. Search Crossing Church Gander. We are also on Instagram and YouTube!

On Monday, May 4 at 9 am we will have prayer time at the church. If you are unable to attend in person, please take a moment to pray for those who need healing.
