About Us
Who We Are ...
The Cross Team (TCT) is a group of volunteers with a passion to commit to helping those in need and making a difference in the lives of the less fortunate. We are NOT a business, nor are we a non-profit organization or 501c3. We partner with various organizations, companies, churches, volunteers and individual contributors to provide food, essential supplies and reach the lost.
​
It's not enough to just provide food or supplies but we must invest time to get to know the individuals, their background, life stories and how it led them here. It is about showing up and being present to build that relationship and trust with the unhoused community. We strive to be engaging and minister to the hopeless. Sometimes it's about us going out to the encampments to meet the folks where they're at. Once the trust is established, they can open up to us and we'll be able to identify and connect them with the right resources they need to get back on their feet.
​
Our goal is to bring hope, love and support to those who feels abandoned, despair and isolated. We work together as a team to raise awareness, provide supplies, and build stronger communities through our homeless outreach events, donors, sponsors, churches and alliances.
Our Purpose
10 Be devoted to one another in LOVE. Honor one another above yourselves.
11 Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, SERVING the Lord.
12 Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in PRAYER.
13 SHARE WITH THE LORD'S PEOPLE WHO ARE IN NEED. Practice HOSPITALITY.
– Romans 12:10-13
