Serving with Crosstown

Matthew 20:28 …"the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve…

At Crosstown, we believe one of the best ways to connect and grow is to serve others. We encourage you to get involved in an area of service. It takes over 300 volunteers to operate Crosstown and we have many different areas for you to serve in – both on weekdays and weekends. Whether you work with babies or play an instrument, we have an opportunity for you.
