In just about a month, a group of missionaries from Russia and Germany will be coming to northern Virginia to take part in an annual missions project. It’s part of a partnership between our three churches that saw us visit Russia two years ago and Germany last year to do work on several service projects as well as spend time with other believers from different cultures.
Crossroads has partnered with two “sister” churches, a Baptist church in Gera, Germany, and another in Rostov-on-Don, Russia. In all, 28 Germans and 12 Russians will be coming to Northern Virginia from July 8-July 18, 2016, where they will be joined by congregants of Crossroads Church to help renovate and preserve historic cabins in Prince William Forest Park, which celebrates its 80th anniversary as a park, as well as the 100th anniversary of the US National Park System.
