Sundays at La Croix
La Croix Church is a group of people who Jesus has saved and sent to be missionaries. We come together as one giant family to worship Jesus on Sunday Mornings.When do you meet?
We have one service at 10:30am each Sunday at Tari's School of Dance in South Baton Rouge. For directions, click here.What should I expect when I attend?
Our gatherings are structured based on the belief that it is God who initiates through scripture and we respond through worship. We are committed to incorporating the Word of God into every service, and every message will be based on Scripture. We want to bring honor and fame to Jesus as we sing, as we learn from His Word, as we repent of sin and experience the forgiveness He purchased. We want Jesus to be the name that you remember when you leave.There are 4 components to our Sunday Services:
Worship
Each person who visits us on Sunday mornings worships God with a different heart and from a unique experience. We are glad to know that many of those that come may be only beginning their journey of faith, not sure who Christ is or even what they believe. We desire to be a welcoming place to all, where anyone can come to learn, worship, and grow closer to God. However, this cannot be at the expense of the holiness of God, which calls us to worship Him with nothing less than our lives. All that we do on Sunday – from the preaching to the childcare to the music – is an act of worship. We invite all to join us in giving thanks and praise to God.Music
Since the attendees of La Croix come from different walks of life and faith, our music reflects that. Not believing that worship can be contained in music (and certainly not a specific genre labeled “Praise and Worship”), we have found ways to sing to God that span across taste and style, all the while worshiping Him with honest hearts.If you’re new with us, you’ll notice a majority of songs are written by artists here at La Croix. Numerous psalms in the Old Testament encourage us to “sing to Him a new song,” and we truly believe God specifically leads each local church. We also sing from a mix of classic hymns, contemporary worship songs, and songs by Christian artists. Our taste in music is eclectic, ranging from rock to country to bluegrass to Motown; all can be drawn upon to make a joyful noise to the Lord.
Communion
At the end of each sermon, we have a time of worshipful response and communion. As we focus on how God is speaking to us and working in our hearts, we must not forget to also meditate on the life and death of Christ on our behalf. Communion is a way for followers of Christ to reflect on the sacrifice that was made out of love for us all – God giving His Son to pay for the sin in our lives.Offering
We don’t pass a collection plate because we aren’t interested in your money; we are interested in showing you the redeeming love of Christ and creating an environment for you to meet God. Regular attendees should feel free to give as an act of worship to a giving God. Members are expected to give willingly and sacrificially back to God with the understanding that all the earth and everything in it belongs to God, and all that we have is God’s already.What about children?
We believe that children are a blessing from the Lord and want to provide an environment where they will connect with Jesus best. For more information about La Croix Kidz, click here.How do I get connected?
At La Croix, we want to be a people—this means that we want to walk in community. Part of how we do this is through our Missional Community Groups, or MCGs. If you are interested in getting connected, click here.How do I get more information?
