Good Friday Service | April 10, 2020
In the midst of COVID-19, we have a unique opportunity to come together with several churches from Marshfield (albeit virtually) for our Good Friday service. THE Church… is larger than just “our” church, Crossroads. So join us as we join together with area churches to worship and honor Him on the night that He gave His all for us.
We will be going live on Friday, April 10th at 6:30pm for this united Good Friday service. Can’t wait for you to “join” us!
