Do you offer financial assistance?

Money that is donated to CrossPoint throughout the year is used to subsidize the cost of the Deeper Journey retreat. If however,  you are still needing financial assistance we recommend reaching out to your church to see what funds they are able to provide.

Here is a sample request letter that you may edit and send to those who might be interested in financially supporting you.
