A typical CrossRoads classroom learning situation.
Switzerland (MNN) ― CrossRoads is an international ministry strategy of The JESUS Film Project. The teams equip national Campus Crusade staff to generate community movements.
Although used most often as a direct response to the HIV/AIDS epidemic, the program's focus on character and life skills development makes it an effective solution to other societal crises, such as violence, drug abuse, teen pregnancy and joblessness.
CrossRoads provides tools and training, and using the JESUS film is central to illustrating how Jesus is the ultimate role model for character, provides power for living, and a hope for the future.
Right now, there are 70 countries which have adopted CrossRoad's strategies. Since it began in 1995, CrossRoads has formed partnerships where they have earned the respect of governments, NGOs and educators around the world.
Pray for the staff. A small team is going to Trinidad to help train campus staff to use CrossRoads in a campus environment. Pray for this training time to go smoothly.
A separate team will be looking at launching new outreach in Switzerland next month. They were invited to help the Swiss staff address rising problems of violence and racism in Swiss schools and the society at large. Please pray for an effective meeting.
