Mr. John Moran
Musician

I first became aware of Crossroads in 2010 with a series of concerts that I participated in. As a worship leader in larger churches I had been longing to be in a church where I knew everyone and every knew me. Seems like the last ten years has just flown by. Just happy and feeling blessed to be here.

Mrs. Darla Smith
Church Office Administrator

Our family became members of Cross Roads in 2003. I joined the church staff in January of 2007. I’ve had the pleasure of working with several pastors, each of whom provided me with deeper insights into the word of God. My work here provides me with a strong sense of purpose and offers me additional interaction with fellow members and people in our community. During my free time I enjoy spending time with my family, traveling, gardening, reading and crafting.
