SUMMARY:Quilted Hugs Project Sewing Day
DESCRIPTION:Help Us Make Quilted Hugs! \nThe quilting group and the care team have joined forces for a project to provide love and care to people in crisis in our congregation\, by making “Quilted Hugs”.  These hugs are fleece lined shoulder wraps that are quilted with beautiful colors on the front and are a way for our church family to know we are thinking of them\, praying for them and that God is wrapping his arms around them as they go through difficult times.  A sample of a quilted hug is pictured here. \nPlease come Friday\, May 18 or Saturday\, May 19 from 10am-4pm each day to help in preparing materials and assembling these quilts.  You can come and go throughout the day as your schedule allows and you do not need to have quilting or sewing experience to help.  Our goal is to make 24 quilted hugs for distribution to our congregation\, but we cannot do this project alone.  We hope that you will join in the experience of bringing love and joy to our church family. \nIf you know ahead of time which day(s) you are coming\, please call or email the office or note the days on your connection card in worship\, or by clicking the button on the right.  This will help us plan space and materials needed each day.  However\, please still come either or both days regardless if you have a chance to sign-up in advance.   We look forward to working on this project with you!

SUMMARY:Quilted Hugs
DESCRIPTION:Help Us Make Quilted Hugs! \nThe quilting group and the care team have joined forces for a project to provide love and care to people in crisis in our congregation\, by making “Quilted Hugs”.  These hugs are fleece lined shoulder wraps that are quilted with beautiful colors on the front and are a way for our church family to know we are thinking of them\, praying for them and that God is wrapping his arms around them as they go through difficult times.  A sample of a quilted hug is pictured here. \nPlease come Friday\, April 20 or Saturday\, April 21 from 10am-4pm each day to help in preparing materials and assembling these quilts.  You can come and go throughout the day as your schedule allows and you do not need to have quilting or sewing experience to help.  Our goal is to make 24 quilted hugs for distribution to our congregation\, but we cannot do this project alone.  We hope that you will join in the experience of bringing love and joy to our church family. \nIf you know ahead of time which day(s) you are coming\, please call or email the office or note the days on your connection card in worship.  This will help us plan space and materials needed each day.  However\, please still come either or both days regardless if you have a chance to sign-up in advance.   We look forward to working on this project with you! Contact the church to let us know your coming by clicking the button on the right or calling the office at (608) 849-9599 or emailing us at hello@crossroadswaunakee.org!

SUMMARY:Lyrics And Scripture
DESCRIPTION:Music affects us.  It connects to something deep within.  This fact was not lost on those who wrote the Psalms.  They knew the importance of joining a powerful message to music.  However\, over time the messages carried through the music have changed.  Or have they? \nThrough this six-week growth group\, we will listen and examine the lyrics of songs from various generations and styles.  We’ll discuss the message behind the music and how they mirror scripture or fly in the face of God’s teachings. What messages are these artists trying to get across?  Are they appropriate?  When we sing along to these songs\, what is it that we are saying?  Do we even know?  Let’s find out the answers to these questions together. \nNOTE: There may be some explicit language discussed within the context of the music and therefore it is recommended that attendees be at least 13 years or older. \nWhen: Wednesday’s\, 6:30-7:30pm\,  March 28-May 2\, 2018 \nWhere:  Rahn’s Residence\, 1600 Shenandoah Dr\, Waunakee. \nCost: Free \nNote:  Each week is a stand-alone unit.  Come to one or all weeks as you are able. \nRegister online or by contacting our church office.

SUMMARY:Four Chaplains
DESCRIPTION:On January 23\, 1943\, the USAT Dorchester\, escorted by three Coast Guard cutters\, left New York harbor bound for Greenland carrying 902 officers\, servicemen and civilian workers. On February 2\, one of the cutters detected the presence of a submarine but failed to find its position. \nDown in the ship’s stifling hold\, four U.S. Army chaplains\, Lt. George L. Fox\, Methodist; Lt. Alexander D. Goode\, Jewish; Lt. John P. Washington\, Catholic; and Lt. Clark V. Poling\, Reformed\, circulated among the men calming their fears and passing out soda crackers to alleviate seasickness. \nEarly in the morning of February 3 the chaplains were still up just before 1:00 when the torpedo struck. The tremendous explosion threw soldiers from bunks and the lights went out as the stricken ship listed to starboard\, sinking fast.. \nThe four chaplains quickly moved among the bewildered men\, calming them\, directing them to life rafts\, urging them to escape the doomed ship. Many had forgotten their life jackets. The chaplains located a supply in a deck locker and passed them out. When the bin was empty they pulled off their own and made others put them on.. \nThe four chaplains remained on the ship’s slanted aft deck\, standing together\, arms linked\, heads bowed in prayer\, as the Dorchester slipped beneath the waves. Their sacrifice would be remembered as one of the most touching stories of the Second World War\, and their legacy continues to this day. \nThis event was the catalyst for Americans to embrace interfaith understanding. Until the Dorchester\, there was no mention in print of Catholics\, Protestants and Jews working together in this manner\, especially in prayer. It was a transformational moment for America\, the first time all three denominations were recognized by the mainstream population as serving together and with common purpose. \nThis year\, Pastor Kristen has the tremendous honor of representing Crossroads (as the United Methodist clergy) at a Four Chaplains Ceremony at the American Legion Post 348.  I’d like to invite you to this special event on February 20th at 7pm at the DeForest Area Community & Senior Center located at 505 N. Main St.\, in DeForest.  It’s a lovely tribute that brings together a cross section of faith communities as we recognize how these great spiritual leaders embodied Christ’s message.
