Crosswind is a nonprofit 501c3 regional missions organization facilitating a network of individuals, social agencies, businesses and churches to make a difference in our community.  Since 2005, our mission has been to help

marginalized and hurting people meet practical needs through relationship-based care. 

 

We take the gospel in word and deed to the margins of our city. That’s what we do. Lots of ways to say it but that’s our call, our brand, our contribution to the kingdom. The people that God bring to share life with us may come for many reasons but will stay because our call becomes theirs. It is a hope that the people of God in our city will unite on behalf of “the least of these” to see our city transformed by Jesus. We believe that Jesus taught His people to love their neighbors as themselves through acts of service, humility, and kindness.

 

 

 

 

STRATEGY

Our strategy as an effective gospel mission is to present specific ministry directives to our community (counseling, outreach, homeless support) but keep our overall mission statement less rigid in order that we might adapt to the ever changing needs of our community. We strive to keep a pulse on the current needs of our neighbors and ultimately inspire people of faith to take action and provide solutions.  As local missionaries we provide a catalyst as much as we do direct care.

 

BEGINNINGS

Big gifts sometimes come in the smallest packages. Crosswind had its humble beginnings as a bible study of just 14 people and has since exploded into a vibrant missional movement in northeast Mississippi. In the wake of hurricane Katrina in August of 2005, many people from the gulf coast were forced north into Mississippi and into our community.

 

In a matter of days, our small bible study created a resource command center and fed over 100 people daily for over a month while they tried to put their lives back together. We aided in securing housing and clothes for those who lost everything. This mobilization of relationship-based help caused us to realize that there was a huge need for community relief outreach…not only in a disaster situation…but in everyday life struggles as well.  As a result, God brought together a core group of 20 adults to cast the vision for Crosswind. That’s how it all started.

 

We never felt called away from the traditional church structure…we were simply called to a different way of thinking

(and a different way of living). Proximity requires responsibility. Crosswind belongs to God. It isn’t our story…it’s His.

We are grateful to everyone who has walked this journey with us.

Statement of Faith

We believe in the one true and living God, in three Persons: the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, who is invisible, personal, omnipresent, eternal, dependent on none, unchanging, truthful, trustworthy, almighty, sovereign, omniscient, righteous, holy, good, loving, merciful, long-suffering and gracious.

1 Cor. 8:4,6; John 4:24.

 

We believe that Almighty God has revealed all that is necessary to life and salvation in the sixty six books of Holy Scripture which are the Word of God. All Scripture was given by inspiration of God, is infallible and inerrant, and is the final arbiter in all disputes. Its authority is derived from its Author and not from the opinions of men.

2 Tim. 3:15-17; Heb. 4:12.
