Latest News : June 2016 Greetings from Crossfire Youth Ministries. This month we are highlighting the Wednesday Elementary Crew. Shown above is our devotions time with this awesome crew.   We have a very lively elementary crew - however, as you can see they have a growing heart for the Lord. They love to sing and memorize bible verses. Generally we have between 40-50 students every Wednesday evening. Many of this crew reflect the 2nd generation of Crossfire and the families and lives God is touching. We value your prayers over this ministry.     Thank you for your interest in what God is doing in and through Crossfire. June has turned into quite a busy month of ministry opportunities and challenges. It was amazing to see God bring healing to a young man who took a bullet to the head. Within days he was awake, talking and a good memory. May God be glorified! Our New Hampshire trip was filled with good memories. The Alpine Slide was by far the most exciting activity. Also enjoyed were the Air Bag jump & water slides. On the way home we had a teen deal with a seizure, waited for the ambulance, and took an unexpected detour to the hospital. 3 hours later we continued our journey home. I enjoyed watching the interaction of this crew of 28 build friendships and deal with the unexpected events of the day. A past Sunday saw a crew of students and volunteers share with the Akron United Zion church. They all did a great job representing Crossfire.   This week was our partnership with Indiantown Mennonite Church in providing meals and VBS for Crossfire students. The first night 28 attended from Crossfire, 2nd night 36, 3rd night 43 & 4th night 49. All students are bused in. Looking forward to the closing program tonight that involves parents as well as the children. We are truly thankful for the partnerships with local churches such as Indiantown in helping to ministry to the children in our local community. We desire your prayers over Crossfire as we seek additional investors into this ministry. We are looking to add a program director in the near future to aid in strengthening Crossfire as we serve the children in the Denver and surrounding  communities Weekly we continue to serve up to 50 children on a Wednesday evening. Thursday evenings up to 40 children & Friday evenings see about 25 teens. Our Ashland Youth Center draws bout 15 each Saturday & 4-6 young adults on a Tuesday evening. As God continues to bring children into our midst we do our best to share the Love of Jesus Christ with each of them. We value your prayers and financial support - Together we are making a difference. Please feel free to contact us to answer any questions you may have in considering Crossfire as a future investment ministry.   Thank you for supporting us in Prayer & Finances. You are a valuable part of this ministry Team. Sincerely, James L Horning Executive Director Web Site Link We communicate through email and Facebook.
