Cross Streets Community:
A Ministry of
Southside Presbyterian Church
“...for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you gave me clothing, I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited me.” Matthew 25: 35-36
Living Out Matthew 25...
When we are not in a pandemic, Cross Streets Community is a multi-faceted program for homeless people in our area. On Monday and Friday mornings, homeless people are provided with a hot meal, showers, laundry services, and a clothing room for approximately 100 people a week. Currently we are offering limited services such as boxed to-go meals during the pandemic.
Out of faithfulness to Matthew 25, Southside seeks to serve our homeless brothers and sisters through Cross Street Community by providing meals, showers, laundry services, a clothing room, and hair cuts. But more than this we seek to provide a place for people to feel loved, accepted, and a valuable part of this community, so we seek to offer our friendship and our support as well as opportunities for our homeless brothers and sisters to have leadership roles and responsibilities in the operations of our program.
