Cross International partners with Men at the Cross to help the poor

The nonprofit relief and development agency, Cross International, has been selected as the featured international ministry for this year’s Men at the Cross conferences, scheduled at nationwide venues beginning July 17 and running though Nov. 14.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PRLog (Press Release) - Jul 07, 2009 -
Men at the Cross is a rapidly growing Christian movement aimed at equipping and inspiring men of faith to mentor other men, ultimately encouraging them to be better disciples of Jesus. The movement sponsors gatherings at arenas across the nation.  There are 18 of these events planned for this year in locations from Chicago to Atlanta, including two local events in Tampa and Jacksonville, Fla.

When White created Men at the Cross, he had Cross International’s ministry in mind. In part, he wanted to use the events to spread the news about the ministry and its life-saving programs to help the poorest of the poor.

“Our name is lagging behind our experience as a ministry,” says Brian Schutt, Cross International’s vice president of marketing. “Through this partnership with Men at the Cross, Joe White wants to help us get the word out about the good work we are doing to help the poor in Christ’s name.”

Cross International appears as the featured international ministry in a video shown at each event and receives a third of the proceeds. A national ministry and a local ministry are also featured in the short video. Cross will also have an exhibition booth at the events where attendees can learn more about the ministry, meet some of the staff, and make donations.

“Joe wants to see the poor helped so much that even with a program geared toward discipleship he can’t get away from helping the poor,” Schutt says.

The first Men at the Cross event is slated for July 17 at the Chaifetz Arena in St. Louis, MO.

Cross International, an interdenominational Christian relief and development organization, works in more than two dozen developing countries, helping “the poorest of the poor.” We do this to demonstrate God’s love, which abides in those who help the needy (1 John 3:17-18); and in obedience to Christ who, in Matthew 25, welcomes into the kingdom of God those who have fed the hungry and sheltered the homeless.
