It is the command of Jesus Christ to "love one another", He also said "I have come for the sick, not the healthy". The Catholic Church takes pride in continuing the work of Christ."Cross Roads Community" is a support for people who are entangled by substance abuse and are in need of God's love and healing. I warmly encourage those in need to contact Cross Roads Community. Likewise, I ask that people support Cross Roads Community financially as it is a charitable organization. Thank you, may God bless and keep you.

I’ve been a volunteer with CRC almost since its inception and help in many areas from cooking, cleaning and running groups. It has been heartening for me to see so many people who have been trapped in the cruelty of drug addiction to come through the programme and able to lead healthy and productive lives. CRC provides a wonderful model of healing and I enjoy supporting it because I see the fruits of its work.
