A SevenLakes Story! - “How CrossPoint Changed Us…” - The Schmidt Family

April 8th, 2008 admin Posted in SevenLakes Stories |

We moved into Cinco Ranch about 2 years ago. Troy and I had both been away from church for some time, but we knew we wanted to find a church to call our own.  Our first encounter with Crosspoint was a phone call inviting us to the first service.  We did not attend. Our second encounter was a mailer that came straight to our door, it was for the Easter service.  We came to that Easter service where we were greeted by Fred.  He made us feel very welcome.  Once we entered the building we met Pastor Dan who was equally inviting.  We got a lot out of that service and everyone was so nice.  We felt so comfortable at Crosspoint Seven Lakes and so we made the decision to call it “our church”.  Since that time we have become more involved.  We wanted to serve and doing so has changed us. Troy is a part of the crew who transforms Seven Lakes, The High School into Seven Lakes, The Church. I must admit that my husband is not a morning person, but he rises every Sunday morning to help with the transformation.  When he gets home he is filled with pleasure because he was a part of serving our community and our God.   I am now a part of the team of greeters and I also play Bunko with a group of fabulous women.  I love being a greeter because I get the opportunity to make someone feel just the way Fred made Troy and I feel on our first visit.  Playing Bunko with other women has given me a chance to meet new friends.  Being a part of a church and a community brings us great joy!  To be able to worship with my husband has given us a different kind of connection.  God is working in our lives just as he always has, BUT we are more aware of Him. 

We are thankful for the great people we have met and the ways we have been able to get involved.  Thank you CrossPoint for allowing us to grow as Christians!
