A Courtship In The Making

As most of you know, Campus Crossroads has been primarily a student church on the campus of UNC for 9 years now. We count it a privilege to serve the students here. Something that you may not know is that we have been praying for quite sometime for God to open the door for our congregation to be more multicultural and multigenerational. Last year, we took on what started out as an experiment with Church of the Harvest in Carrboro. Troy, the pastor, and I have been friends for many years and in a way, he is responsible for the initial doors to open for Campus Crossroads. The experiment was for us to look at our congregations and see how they could compliment one another if we were to meet together.

We decided a little over a year ago to begin the experiment. We looked at it more as a courtship. We began to meet together, first at Church of the Harvest during the summer, then on campus for the entire school year. It has been an amazing adventure. Everyone seems to be so excited about the church and what each congregation brings.

After the initial year, we have began the process of forming a joint board to oversee this next year and to plan what other transitions should be made. It is so exciting to see such wonderful people working together for the kingdom of God. Please continue to pray for us as we venture down this road and that God would give us all wisdom in the decisions we are making.
