Student Ministry:
The Student Ministry at Crossroads endeavors to train, equip, and empower youth to be passionate followers of Jesus Christ, who are excited about and committed to proclaiming the Gospel in both word and deed.
Wednesday Gatherings:
Crossroads’ Student Ministry focuses most of its efforts into its Wednesday evening gatherings. These gatherings contain four essential elements: free-time, worship, biblical teaching, and small group discussions. Through free-time and worship, students connect with God and Christian peers. Biblical teaching and small group discussions enable students to hear the truth in God’s Word, consider how it relates to the 21st century, and apply it to their lives.

Volunteer Opportunities:
Do you have a desire to see students grow in maturity and faith? Are you a parent, wanting to be more involved in the life of your student?
If you answered yes to either of these questions, please consider taking an extra hour out of your week so that you can sit down and speak with Pastor Jeff about the possibility of volunteering with Student Ministries.
But what if the thought of standing in front of a crowd of students makes you sweat bullets? If that is you, there is no need to worry; there are a variety of opportunities available—from driving a van to Chicago once a year, to making brownies, to playing a game of basketball and asking a student how their day went.
If you are interested in volunteering in any way, please contact us.
