SEE A NEED — SERVE A NEED.
As you know, many have been affected by the COVID-19 outbreak, even in our local area. At Crossroads, we live to give and we believe that every person is worth the extra mile., so we are working on launching multiple outreach projects to meet the growing needs of our neighbors. As needs continue to change rapidly, we will continue to update this page on a weekly basis, so make sure to check back in if you're looking for more opportunities to serve!

ASSEMBLING FACE MASKS
We are partnering with Lifepoint Church to help assemble face masks for our medical community. Lifepoint has kits put together with all the material you would need to make either 25 or 50 masks. You would pick them up at their Fredericksburg Campus (1400 Central Park Blvd.). Pick-up/Drop-off times are Monday-Thursday 9:30am-4:00pm - and mention that you are with Crossroads Church ! |
FREDERICKSBURG FOOD BANK
With many out of work for the immediate future, the Fredericksburg Food Bank has experienced an increase in need for their services. Food distribution occurs weekly for hundreds of households, and there are multiple sites set up for volunteers to help distribute food to those in need. Face masks and gloves will be provided for you when you arrive, and you can expect a safe social-distancing environment. In order to volunteer for a shift, you will need to email our Outreach Coordinator, Ashley Lugo by clicking on the link below, and she will get you set up!
