What: David Ward Memorial Service
Date: November 3rd
Time: 11:00am
Place: Crossroads Church
Occasionally something difficult happens in our church community that we think you would want to know about. This is one of those times. This past Tuesday, Dr. David Ward, very unexpectedly passed away. David was a very integral part of our worship team, He is featured on our worship CD’s. We had many God moments in our worship services as David ministered to us through music for 9 years. It was hard to say Good Bye to David and His Family a year ago when they moved to North Carolina. And this is even harder.
There will be a memorial service at Crossroads Church, Tuesday, November 3rd at 11:00a. Everyone is invited.
David delivered many of the babies of those on our worship team, and really served as the Crossroads staff team doctor. He had a tremendous heart for God and love for people and for connecting people.
In honor of Dr. David Ward, we are offering a free MP3 download of the song Speak To Me.
