"Crossing the River Jordan" symbolizes the movement of a human's consciousness, a transformation from the earth-bound viewpoint to a transcendent one. When a person realizes (not just believes) his/her identity with the Source, or Divine, or God (whatever you choose to call Original Cause), he/she has "crossed," or in some church terms, has been "born again."

This movement is not a matter of belief, which amounts to a notion or concept held to be true, a word-symbolization of What Is; realization is a knowing, as in knowing that you are, that you be (as in I Am).

Celebrate that you are (we are) the Son(s) of God.

No. The Jordan River is not that wide. It is maybe a few feet across, so there would be no place to stop or perform sacrifices. Additionally, the crossing of the Jordan was part of a military move to attack the city of Jericho, meaning that there would be no time to perform a sacrifice during the crossing as they needed the element of surprise in warfare.
