2019 was a momentous year for Crossover Community Impact for a number of reasons. I often think of the number 7 as the number of completion, and I feel like God brought about the end of some things and ushered in the beginning of some new things! A large number of us went to the Christian Community Development Association Conference this year in Dallas, Texas, and the verse that was repeated along with the theme of “Moving Forward,” was Isaiah 43:19 that says, “See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.” In a lot of ways, I feel like God did a new thing in and through Crossover this year, and I am excited to tell you all about it!

Crossover Community Impact became more intentional as the “IMPACT Kids” Program became the “Crossover Kids” Program. I saw the Student Ministry Director, the Crossover Kids Director, the StreetLeader Coordinator, and the College Staff work hard together to bring about the best outcomes not only for the high school students, but also for the elementary-age students at Hawthorne Elementary. I saw Crossover Health Services build out its programming to focus on wellness and health by adding a Dietician, more medical assistants, and our Spiritual Care Director completed her master’s degree and became a LMFT-C (Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist) in order to help more people in the community. As a result, the clinic now has over 5,000 patients!

Crossover Development Company completed 2 homes and constructed a duplex that will be the home of our Girls’ Intern Program! Our new foreman, Will Carr, has leveraged his love for construction and his love for the Lord to revitalize the community physically through home repairs, renovations, and revitalizations! Crossover Prep more than doubled in size. In its 3rd year, it has 120 6th-9th grade boys who are restoring our community by partnering with the school to become educated, godly young men who love north Tulsa. And in a little over 18 months, we have raised more than half of the funds needed for the Crossover Community Center, which will house Crossover Prep and all of the sports offerings of the Crossover Sports Association!

For the first time, we have partnered with a number of foundations in the community that long to see north Tulsa restored, which has allowed us to expand our development work in our community. As you can imagine though, there is still work to be done. We would love it if you would partner with us in this great work of community transformation and development. We are raising $150,000. All of your financial support moves this work forward! Please join us to help others see the beauty of grace in their lives and the lives of those around them in north Tulsa and beyond.

Blessings,

Rondalyn Abode Director of Development www.crossoverimpact.org
