Healthy groceries and fresh produce are often a luxury that so many in this area can't afford. Crossroads World Outreach Ministries strives to create and maintain partnerships that allow us to help families and individuals in this regard.

For the past couple of months we’ve been working with young men getting out of the prison system. I tell you what, these young men are on fire for God and have changed lives and want to do anything to keep moving forward in a positive direction. I am thankful God has brought them to Crossroads World Outreach, they have blessed my life in more ways than I can say. Watching the change in these young men's lives is a blessing of its own. With your monthly giving we are able to provide odd jobs to encourage and foster a working relationship with these young men so they can also provide basic needs for themselves and their families, encouraging them to keep pushing forward. We have helped with finding jobs and connecting them to help with their everyday needs through other outreaches.
Don't forget to sign up for the regular monthly newsletter. Partners will be subscribed to the Monthly Partners Report to show you how your giving and partnership is helping meet the needs and touching people with the healing love of Christ. We can't do this without you. This is YOUR outreach to the inner-city. Thank you!
