✨ Crossover’s First Annual Staff Retreat ✨
This was a special day—bringing together employees from every part of the Crossover family: Crossover Bible Church, Crossover Community Impact, Crossover Health Services, Crossover Development Company, Crossover Sports & Fitness, and Crossover Kids.
We kicked things off with breakfast and powerful praise & worship before diving into our first session with Mr. Sublet, “Abiding in Rest.” Afterward, we broke into smaller sessions led by team members, then reconvened after lunch for his second message, “Living Fruitfully.” We closed the day just as we started—lifting our voices together in worship. 🙌🏾
One of the most moving moments came when Mr. Sublet shared his deep, decades-long friendship with our Co-Founder and Lead Pastor, Philip Abode. From helping pay for his college books when times were tough to connecting him with his role at Fellowship Hi-Crest, Pastor Philip’s generosity and faith have been woven into his story from the very beginning.
🔥🍔 And then… the retreat shifted into full-on summer mode with our Staff Cookout & Kickball! 🥳⚾ From burgers to belly laughs, epic slides into home plate, and championship belt celebrations 🏆—the day was packed with community, connection, and pure joy.
We came together as one big family—cheering each other on, sharing meals, and making memories that will last long after the last kickball rolled away. ☀️💛
📸 Just look at these smiles—this is what fellowship looks like. ❤️
