Global Missions & Outreach 

Crossroads believes that the good news of God’s love is not meant to be kept to ourselves. It is something we want to share with others, starting with our next-door neighbors and extending around the world. In this way we hope to become more and more a “church without walls.” We aim to encourage missional living as a lifestyle by offering diverse opportunities to get involved in what God is doing both locally and around the world. Join us in helping to support, encourage, and pray for our local, global, and short term missions teams as we together step out in faith to share the love of Jesus.

Olivier & Debora Habnit

Cluj-Napoca, Romania
In 2013, Olivier was part of a group from Crossroads who went to Romania to a garbage dump close to Cluj-Napoca in Romania, to work among the Roma people who call this area their home.  This sparked a passion within him to serve in this part of the world.  Olivier moved to Romania in 2014, to work for Foundation Charis on construction projects and coordinating overall support and ministry programs. From September 2011, Debora had worked for Foundation Charis for a year, when she returned to The Netherlands for 6 months to prepare for a long-term move to Romania. In March 2013 Debora returned and began working on ministry programs for women, children, and teenagers in the Roma community, and is also one of the leaders in the church.

Olivier and Debora met in Romania and as they worked and served together, a friendship and eventually more developed.  They married in March of 2016 and are continuing to work in their shared passion for the Roma people and community in Romania
