CrossRoad Christian Church opened its doors for Ministry on November 28, 2010 at the Merle Manders Conference Center in Stockbridge, Georgia under the leadership of Pastor Irvine Alafia Bryer, formerly Chaplain (Lieutenant Colonel) United States Army.
The congregation had formerly been members of the Fort Gillem Chapel, which from its inception in 1941 had been a beacon of hope to military personnel and their families. On November 21, 2010 under the directives of the Department of Defense the "Base Realignment Authorization Commission", the Fort Gillem Chapel and the Fort Gillem post were closed.
The willow tree is a symbol of Christianity - cut off a branch and it will grow again. Spread the Word to everyone; men
and women all over the world.
