On March 23,
Crossroads will open its fourth Greater Cincinnati location at 8575 Bridgetown Road in Cleves. The interdenominational church currently has about 17,000 members, and has locations in
Oakley, Florence and Mason.
The church is in the old Three Rivers Middle School. Crossroads bought the site in fall 2013 and renovated parts of the building to include two auditoriums with a total of 700 seats, state-of-the-art audiovisual technology, an open atrium and 13
Kids’ Club rooms.
Children ages birth through fifth grade can go to Kids’ Club while their parents attend church services. Kids’ Club is a free, immersive program created for children to learn and play with others of the same age. Sixth through eighth graders can attend Middle School Ministry at 11:30 a.m. on Sundays, and high school students can attend High School Ministry on Thursday nights.
The West Side location will have two services on Sunday, one at 9:30 and one at 11:30. Services include live music and teaching, with video from the Oakley campus or a live message from the West Side pastor, Greg McElfresh.
Crossroads began in 1995 as a place for people who had given up on church but not on God. Its focus is on creating a welcoming environment for anyone who wants to attend and invite friends.
