Things to Know
The GO Ministry (i.e. missions) of The Cross Church has three specific goals.
Goal 1: Help people grow in their spiritual development
Goal 2: Invest as many hours GOing as we invest in weekly programming on campus
Goal 3: Annually, 25% of our members to spend the night somewhere other than their bed for the purpose of spreading God’s fame
We will only be able to accomplish these goals with Partners!
Locally, we serve the organizations that serve our community.
Regionally/Nationally, we help strengthen churches, support organizations that serve vulnerable people, and resource emergency response efforts.
Internationally, we strengthen and encourage churches, support organizations that serve vulnerable people, and invest in holistic community development.
“Locally” = communities around Wylie, TX in the SE corner of Collin County.
“church” = existing churches, church plants, and disciple-making movements
“organizations” = both sacred and secular
“vulnerable peoples” = widows, orphans, and displaced peoples
Each partner selected will be assigned one of the following support levels.
Level 1 Support – The Cross Church provides monthly financial support, underwrites special projects, or sends people to serve.

Level 3 Support – The Cross Church sends monthly financial support, underwrites special projects, and sends people to serve.

May & June – The Management Team will review the GO Advisory Team’s recommendations and make final decisions.
