Ruth Sandberg set aside time for a deep discussion on the issues and problems that the church members feel are important for their community.  Outstanding preparation by leaders and the pastor’s enthusiastic envolvement helped to energize the group.  The 30 participants spoke about concerns and issues such as homelessness, aging, healthcare, safety, and education.  The break out groups were effective and report backs kept people engaged.  Well done Crossroads and the Crossroads core team!
