Crossroads Community Church has a heart for the world, from our neighborhood to the other side of the planet! We have ministry partners and friends in many places and commit a large part of our budget to missions. Here are some of the main ministries that we are working with.
(Visit Forgotten Children Worldwide)
"Our approach to breaking the cycle of poverty is to PROTECT, by providing for basic needs, EMPOWER, by providing education and self-sustainability programming, and LOVE, by sharing the love of Jesus Christ. Then we REPEAT in as many children's lives as possible."
We've been part of trips to both India and Uganda, places where FCW has local minsters and pastors that we support to save children from poverty and trafficking, providing both food and shelter as well as spiritual nourisment and sharing the Gospel.
Matt Hartsell, founder and executive director shares some of the needs and opportunities that we are helping with in Uganda:

(Visit New Life For Haiti)
The mission of New Life for Haiti is to minister to the needs of families and children in the Grand Anse River valley, sharing our love for Christ and His message, promoting self-sufficiency and hope for a sustainable future.
Haiti has been in the news for the political unrest going on there. The hardships are not new and many children and families are suffering. In the past, Crossroads has sponsored several trips to Haiti for construction projects to build schools and help with the ministries located there. The country is more closed to travel now, but many in our congregation sponsor children there and we are supporting and praying for those who are still there in some of the hardest circumstances.
