REACH MISSIONS AT THE CROSSING CHURCH
January-March 2026
CONVOY OF HOPE PHILIPPINES
While in the Philippines with Convoy of Hope, our team saw how the local team serves communities through sustainable efforts, using data and nutritional programs to help people provide for their own needs. They also experienced how Convoy has built meaningful connections with local leaders, while experiencing the warmth and hospitality of the people they met.
GLOBAL LIFT COLLECTIVE CENTRAL AMERICA
While in Central America with Global Lift Collective, our team witnessed the beauty of the local church in action, serving its community through intentional partnerships and meeting real needs like leadership training, savings groups, community mobilization, and clean water. What makes this work so powerful is that it’s not one organization doing it alone. It’s a collective - Living Water, Enlace, Tearfund, and Hope Internationaleach bringing their unique strengths, united around one mission: to equip the local church to lead transformation in its own community.
HOMES OF HOPE MEXICO
The Crossing Students had an incredible time in Tijuana with YWAM’s Homes of Hope, where 20 students and 5 leaders came together to serve a family of five by building them a home. “In just two days, our team worked tirelessly to get the house up, demonstrating teamwork, perseverance, and compassion. Beyond the build, we spent intentional time in God’s Word, debriefing, and reflecting on all that He was teaching us through the experience. Our students were truly amazing, they gave their very best to serve the family and boldly shined the light of Jesus in everything they did.”
