What I Do At Crossroads

I oversee maintenance and repair of the building, care of the grounds, vehicle maintenance and facility related contracts. As the church treasurer I prepare the budget and oversee monthly financial reports.

Part Of Church I'm Excited About

I enjoy the relationships I have with many of the church family, studying Gods word in classes, meeting with the Elders and staff to plan for the future of Gods church, and seeing people grow in their Christian faith. My favorite thing about being a part of Crossroads is Crossroads is a part of my family.

Outside Of Sunday, You'll Find Me

At the church most days or at Costco shopping for Rest Stop supplies.
