What are our Kids Worth???

We don’t ask often. But we need your help in a very special way right now.
We are in the midst of exciting projects that can have an enormous impact on reaching the millions of youth all over the world who are dropping out of an active life of faith. But we have come to the end of our resources and need immediate assistance.

We announced two goals after Easter:
1) 100 people to pledge a dollar per day -- $30 per month
2) Special, immediate gifts totaling $15,000.

We are happy to report that 21 have stepped forward to pledge a dollar per day – we just need 79 more. Will you help us get to 100?

We’ve raised $1,631 in one time gifts. We just need to raise $13,669 more! Can you help?

You can do it online right here, by phone at 800-803-0118, or by mailing a check to Crossroads, PO BOX 271227, Flower Mound, TX 75027.

Yes, there are lots of ministries and charities. But don’t you think the spiritual future of our youth is a top priority?
Faithfully in Christ,
Dr. Marcellino D’Ambrosio and the Crossroads Board, Staff and Volunteers
