Crossroads Campus Ministry

08/12/2026

We have seen our ministry evolve and adapt over the years as students ceased regularly participating in worship, fellowship, and other aspects of campus ministry like they once did. We also know that we cannot feed the souls of our brothers and sisters if they have empty bellies. Although we no longer host regular worship services at this time, we are living the gospel of Christ by feeding the hungry. In 2025, we recorded 10,740 visits to our Campus Cupboard food shelf, distributing 170,690 pounds of food, serving 13,871 people. In addition, with the support and generosity of six local congregations, our Lunch For-a-Buck program fed 1,101 hungry individuals on Tuesdays during the 2025-2026 school year. We have always remained a ministry rooted in the Gospel. After a period of faithful prayer, contemplation, and discussion, the Crossroads Board of Directors made the difficult decision to close Crossroads in December 2026. Please keep Crossroads in your prayers as we continue through the journey of Holy Closure.
