CrossBridge Community Church

One of the best ways to get to know another person is by doing things with them. Knowing Christ more isn't just a function of Bible study and private meditation, it also involves joining him in what he's doing in this world. What's he doing? The Bible says that he is reconciling the world to God…he's transforming lives of people so they can have a relationship with God and have hope and joy.

At CrossBridge we have a glocal missions philosophy.

Glocal (glo-kul) ministry: To serve Christ locally and globally at the same time.

When we reach out and love the community, we're always asking the question, "How might this have a global impact for God's Kingdom?"

When we go on a foreign mission trip, we're always asking, "How can this experience be leveraged to impact our community back home?"

One of the effects of globalization is that we're no more than six relationships removed from anyone in the world. What's more, our San Antonio community is comprised of numerous ethnic groups itself. If we think of a particular ministry as being local in scope, then we've missed the opportunity to touch the world.

Many of the people we work with and live near were born in another country and still have significant family relationships in their country of origin. By loving and caring for these people in the name of Christ, we can actually touch the world.
