HE gave us $100,000
Praise God for His giving us plans for hope and a future for people to find a job, a career and hear His calling. During the last few weeks of 2017, God gave us more than twice the provision we requested for a jump start into 2018.
Provision for Plans and Purpose
Thanks to Crossroads Career ministry leader Kathy Grosskurth for sharing a series of articles on our blog beginning with New Year! New Purpose? She started with the question of WHY people and organizations do what they do. A fair question indeed!
For Crossroads Career services and its network of ministries, the answer to the WHY question of purpose is summarized as…
Guide people through crossroads in their careers
to find and follow Jesus Christ
… based on the truth that…
We are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works,
which God prepared beforehand that we walk in them.
Ephesians 2:10
Plans to Remodel
First and foremost, we at Crossroads Career want to be better stewards of the people God has placed in our path.
Currently, 53,070 people are registered on our website:
- 50,458 signed-up for career resources and 3,726 employers registered to post jobs
- 508 past and present churches and ministries with 804 ministry volunteers
Secondly, God has given us an incredible array of over 150 career and ministry resources on our website and in our store. We believe God is leading us to…
- Refocus on educating, equipping, and encouraging people at crossroads in their careers. See our nearly completed new website at wp.crossroadscareer.org.
- Reconnect everyone who registered with us by launching monthly emails to build relationships with individuals, employers, and ministries.
- Rework church membership benefits to include a box of 50 workbooks, simplify ministry administration, and provide better support.
- Renew our free online career and ministry resources, as well as our online store that will feature small group study packages.
- Refresh our organization and leadership to more deeply impact each person reached, grow our influence locally to globally, and increase ministry sustainability.
What’s Next?
Stay tuned for more good news God has provided for us.
In the meantime, thanks to all who prayed and shared so generously to jump start this God-scripted adventure into 2018.
Please continue praying for God to call His people to join His ministry to those at crossroads in their careers.
