Crossing Cultures - April 16-17

About Crossing Cultures

People from more than 70 different nations are living right here in Fort Worth! Many of these nations are unreached with the Gospel. Crossing Cultures is a 2-day workshop that will help you learn how to be better at reaching out and relating to people who come from different cultural backgrounds. You'll have the chance to sample different foods as well as visit an ethnic community.
