Our Ministries

By Stage of Life

Cross Kids Preschool is the Preschool Ministry of Cross Church. From start to finish we strive to make your time with us a great experience.

We offer high energy, creative, and interactive large group experiences designed especially for kids. This service allows kids to worship God the way they were wired while God’s Word is taught in a way they can relate and apply to their own lives.

Cross Student Ministry exists so every student who comes here knows that God loves them and wants to be a part of their lives. We do everything we can to make that known by having amazing opportunities to connect with other students through weekly Small Groups, Wednesday night activities, camps, mission opportunities, and creative ministries that focus on the arts.

CTHREE is the college ministry of Cross Church in Fayetteville, Arkansas, serving students at the University of Arkansas. We exist to reach Northwest Arkansas, America, and the World for Jesus Christ. We desire to be a College Ministry that is focused on being a Family On Mission Together to bring life to the University of Arkansas.

A weekly gathering, every Tuesday night, of Single Young Adults in their 20s for worship, teaching, and authentic community. We come together to celebrate the good news of Jesus, learn from the Bible, and seek to reach NWA, America, and the world for Jesus Christ.

A community of Married Young Adults in their 20’s and early 30’s who meet together in small groups during the week across NWA for Bible study and community. If you are wanting authentic community, grow in God’s word, and walk alongside other young adults figuring out marriage together, this is your place!

The Adult Ministry at Cross Church exists to reach and equip the adults of Northwest Arkansas. Whether you are a newly-wed, new parent, empty nester, or retired, it is our desire to help you encounter Christ and the life-changing power of the Gospel.

You may be a mature adult or you may be a boomer turning 70 who’s admitting for the first time that you are over 50. So now that you’ve reached this milestone, what’s next? Welcome to Cross Church where our desire is that you continue to grow in the likeness of Christ, participate in His kingdom building, and make a sufficient investment to the next generation. Join us for the journey!

The Men’s Ministry at Cross Church exists to create opportunities for you to invest in your walk with God and be sharpened by other men. Our ministry guides them to establish a more intimate relationship with God and become steward leaders through fellowship, discipleship, and meaningful events. We desire to see them become God-led men and to be the husband, father, leader and servant that God created them to be.

Women’s Life at Cross Church provides Christ-centered spiritual growth opportunities, as well as encouragement for each woman in our shared journey of faith. We are passionate about knowing God and His word, and because we have experienced His unconditional love, we are positioned to share it with others. We know women are influencers in our homes, workplaces, neighborhoods, and communities, so we strive to steward well the gifts and abilities we have been given by God.

By Area of Focus

Cross Church Missions seeks to empower God’s people to fulfill the Mission Statement of Cross Church in “Reaching Northwest Arkansas, America, and the World for Jesus Christ,” as He has commanded in Acts 1:8, “But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you shall be my witnesses both in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”

The Ability Ministry at Cross Church is a ministry designed to meet the unique needs of EVERY person. We focus on their abilities, rather than disabilities. Every person is uniquely designed by God and it is our goal to help them understand God’s purpose and plan for their lives.

For all outdoor enthusiasts, men and women! If you like to hunt, fish, camp, kayak, hike, etc., this ministry is for you! We aim to reach all outdoorsmen with the gospel of Jesus Christ and help them grow in their faith adventure.

Cross Church Military Ministry exists to minister to vets on and off the field.

The Worship Ministry at Cross Church exists to glorify God and lead God’s people in worshipping His name. Whether in a student worship service or a Sunday morning gathering, we believe that we have a God-given calling to sing praises to the Lord (Psalms 30:4) and declare the excellencies of Christ (1 Peter 2:9). Our desire in everything that we do is to glorify Christ, encourage the church, and declare the wonderful news that Jesus saves.

Cross Church counseling ministry exists to provide a safe and caring environment to discover Christ-centered answers to personal struggles and relational challenges. We seek to serve you by joining you in your journey of embracing God’s hope and healing. Our prayer is that God would free you to be the person he wants you to be so you can live the life he intends for you to live.

As a part of the Decade of Love, Cross Church is committed to loving and serving the vulnerable through the ministries of foster care, adoption, expectant mother advocacy and family crisis support.

We offer a variety of ways for Cross Church members to serve children and families right here in Northwest Arkansas and throughout the state.

Cross Church is honored to announce its partnership with the Arkansas Baptist Children’s Home and Family Ministries through Connected to Foster to create a unique and exciting opportunity for families who are interested in loving vulnerable children here in Arkansas through adoption and foster care.
