Crossroads Community Church: Elizabethtown, IN

Church History

Crossroads Community Church began at the prompting of the Lord in January, 1973. That winter 12 people met to pray and discuss the possibilities of starting a new church. An air of excitement and expectancy filled the room as the Holy Spirit of God started filling the hearts and minds of those 12 people with His vision and will for this new church. They committed themselves to the Lord for His special work.

One week later, a meeting was held in an unfinished family room. It was there in the midst of 51 adults and 4 children that the Holy Spirit inspired the decision to name this new church Crossroads Community Church with the emphasis being on the cross. The Lord was swift in orchestrating the location and purchase of land, and enthusiastic faith filled people worked together to erect the building.

Throughout the years, additions have been made to the original building. A large multipurpose room was constructed in 1981. In 1994 this room was reassigned as the sanctuary as we had outgrown the seating in the original building. The children's wing was dedicated in 1998.

Crossroads Community Church continues to grow in dedication to the Lord's work. We are rising to the challenges of meeting the needs of our congregation and the surrounding community as the Lord wills, inspires, and empowers.
