Advice 14: Live in love, as Christian brethren, ready to be helpful one to another.  Rejoice together in the blessings of life; sympathize with each other in its trials.  Know one another as fellow-workers in the things that endure.  Watch over one another for good, praying that each may be a living member of the Church of Christ, and may grow in the knowledge of the love of God.

First Day School 10:45 AM

Crossroads Friends Meeting house, 4108 Menton, Flint MI

Advice 16: Be diligent in the reading of the Bible and other spiritually helpful writings.  Gather daily in your families for worship.  Such times have a special value in bringing little children especially into the experience of united worship, and so preparing them for the larger meeting for worship, as they learn in the silence to bow to the power of God.

Meetings for Worship

Crossroads Friends Meetinghouse, 4108 Menton, Flint MI 48507

We shall gather for unprogrammed, waiting worship in the Name of Jesus Christ and in the manner of Friends on the dates and at the times and places specified.  Visitors and new attenders are always welcome.  For those not familiar with unprogrammed worship, a small brochure is available (either at the meeting on here on the website), offering general guidance and tips on "meeting etiquette."  Additional materials on the Religious Society of Friends are also available at rise of meeting (and on this website).  Before rise of meeting, the designated meeting closer reads aloud an Advice.  This is followed by framing silence before the handshake of fellowship which marks rise of meeting.

We are currently studying The Gospel According to Matthew during preparation.
When we complete Matthew, we will study The Gospel According to Luke.

Advice 17: Be mindful for yourselves and for your children that you value the beauty and power of good friendships.  Also, by example and precept, encourage your children to appreciate the best in literature and the arts, which is consistent with our Christian faith.  By this, all your lives may be enriched and the youth with tastes thus early formed may henceforth instinctively choose the beautiful and good.

Advice 18: Seek for your children that full development of God’s gifts which true education can bring about.  Remember that the service to which we are called needs healthy bodies, trained minds, high ideals, and an understanding of the laws and purposes of God.  Give of your best to the study of the Bible, and the understanding of the Christian faith.  Be open-minded, ready constantly to receive new light.

[Sunday, August 24, 2008]

Meeting for Worship 10:30 AM

First Day School 10:45 AM

Crossroads Friends Meeting house, 4108 Menton, Flint MI

Advice 19: Be zealous that education shall be continued throughout life. Willingness to be used in mind as well as in body, and to be equipped in both, is a needful part of Christian character.  Our service to God is incomplete without the contribution of the intellect.

First Query: Are meetings for worship well and punctually attended?  Is our behavior therein conducive to meditation and communion with God?  Do we maintain a waiting spiritual worship and a free gospel ministry?  Do we welcome others to share this fellowship with us?

Advice 20: Follow steadfastly after all that is pure and lovely and of good report.  Be prayerful.  Be watchful.  Be humble.  Let no failure discourage you.  When temptation comes, make it an opportunity to gain new strength by standing fast, that you may enter into that life of gladness and victory to which all are called.
