Pathways Building now

1992 - Laying foundations of Crossroads.

Crossroads Building now

The construction of the Crossroads Men's Building took seven months to complete and was finished on time for the open house in January of 1993. The Pathways Youth Building was funded primarily by Mr. and Mrs. Theo Moll in honor of their daughter-in-law, Dr. Sara Moll. Their contribution allowed construction timelines were moved up, and the building was completed by the end of February 1993.

These new facilities have made it possible to provide services that are more comprehensive. The Crossroads building houses a chapel, three dormitories, classrooms, counseling services, a full-service kitchen and dining room and an exercise room. The Pathways building houses classrooms, a computer learning center, a multi-purpose room, offices and a regulation size gymnasium which is frequently used for banquets and other special events. No-cost clothing outlets are also located on campus, providing a ministry to men and women in the neighborhood.

Now we are embarking on yet another major expansion, to meet the growing need for ministry to homeless women and children. With the purchase of the former Glenbeigh facility on the Cleveland's west side, preparations are underway to open Laura's Home in January 2002, to serve up to 100 women and children.

The expansions we have seen over the last fifteen years are built on the firm foundation laid by all those who came before us. We thank God for our rich heritage in the many people who have been instruments of God's faithfulness.
