Crossroads is currently partnering with others who are helping to identify, train, and encourage key national leaders who will spearhead indigenous church planting movements throughout South Asia. Please pray for this initiative and the work that is under way throughout this region. There are opportunities available for small teams to GO to encourage and supplement the daily work of those ministering in this area.

East-West Ministries International exists to evangelize and equip nationals to establish grace-oriented churches. Because East-West Ministries believes that we should be providing all of the steps necessary to accomplish the spiritual transformation of a people group we go through the process of evangelism, pastoral training and church planting. In January 2009, a Crossroads team traveled to India as an exploratory effort and to assist with the training of national leaders. There are other opportunities to serve with this ministry.

Children's Relief International is an international organization that is passionate about serving God by helping His weakest children. CRI has strategic partnerships with local pastors and leaders in Mozambique, Kenya, and India. In August of 2009, Crossroads joined with CRI to send a team of 4 people on a short-term trip to experience what God is doing in Kolkata and Rajahmundry, India. This trip consisted of bible clubs with kids, distributing food and praying for families in remote villages, and assisting with bible training for indigenous pastors. Foundations were laid for future teams to partner in these ways.
** To read more about their adventures, check out the team blog: www.partofindia2009.blogspot.com. Photos from the trip can be found in the Resource section.
In August of 2010, Crossroads headed back to India to partner with CRI to serve children and train pastors in Kolkata and the countryside of Rajahmundry. It was an exciting and humbling trip. Check out the blog from the recent trip: www.crossroadsonmission.com.
Want to be a part of the next trip in 2011 or get involved with sponsoring a child at a Rajah Home? Please contact Brad Peterson for more information.
