Crosstown Update: Madeline

Every Saturday XMC puts on sidewalk Sunday schools for children in three different inner city areas of Lafayette. One of the young girls said it perfectly a few weeks ago “this is our church” and that is exactly what it is. We pack up sound equipment, games, and lesson props and head out to the inner city bringing relevant teachings and most importantly the love of Christ. We are literally seeing children being changed by Jesus. They are learning to pray, memorize scripture, live out their faith, and to change their own neighborhoods. One thing I have found very fascinating is that over the years our core children that attended Crosstown every week have since moved out of their neighborhoods, but that does not mean they aren’t still attending Crosstown! Many of the parents now drive their kids to Crosstown because it has deeply impacted their lives. It is so amazing to see these children growing and changing. We firmly believe that these kids are the next generation of world changers!
