Community Ministry Partners Photo Directory
Dear Friends and Partners,
Welcome! This 9th annual Meet and Greet event is an effort to say “thank you” for serving our community in so many powerful ways. This night is also an opportunity to connect to each other, to schools, to businesses, to Wake County government, and to our church staff as we explore effective partnership in our desire to “Transform the Triangle.” We want you to know how much we value your friendship and partnership with Crossroads Fellowship.
My Mission Department colleague, Val Edwards, and I are excited about how many of you are exploring and developing partnerships already. Our City Reaching Foundation Council is very gratified to see the impact that these partnerships are having in the lives of those we serve and in our community as a whole. Our financial investment in you is being returned as a huge blessing to our congregation and we truly enjoy sharing your transforming stories with our church.
The theme for this year’s Partner Meet and Greet Dinner is “Partnering for a Healthier Community.” Please use this directory for note taking tonight and as a resource guide throughout the year. We feel it’s a great tool for connection and partnership year-round. Together we can help people in our community experience growth and wholeness.
I am so expectant and excited to see what great things will happen together for us this year!
Gratefully Yours,
N. Doug Gamble Val Edwards Pastor of Mission Partnerships Foundation Member TABLE OF CONTENTS
