It is difficult to fathom the immense loss and destruction wrought by the recent earthquake in Syria and Turkey, areas already victim to civil war and poverty. With the death toll rising to over 41,000 people, tens of millions of people will be impacted for years by loss of loved ones, homes, houses of worship and more. First Pres believes that God would respond this crisis through the prayers, compassion and generosity of his Church. So, First Pres is joining the Outreach Foundation to collect a fund for the Presbyterian Church in Aleppo, Syria, who have opened up their College as a relief center offering shelter, blankets, medicine, food and more. Join First Pres by praying for all impacted by the crisis, and by giving to our Earthquake Relief fund. You can do that by clicking here to reach the Outreach Foundation directly or clicking the button below and selecting "Earthquake Relief" to make your donation.

The Church isn't a building—it's people. We're sent into the world to bring the love of Christ to be Light and Life for the City. And we can't do it alone. We partner with other organizations holistically helping people both locally and globally.

About Crossfire Ministries

Local Engagement

God is at Work in Colorado Springs

Our deep desire as a church is to discover where God is already moving and join in His work! Just as we see Christ meeting tangible needs as well as spiritual needs, we partner with organizations both locally and globally who share this vision of holistic gospel ministry. We volunteer with and financially support 20 non-profits in Colorado Springs who care for and empower the most vulnerable members of our community.

Global Engagement

God is Building His Church Around the World

We’re called to take the gospel to the ends of the earth, and we think the best way to carry out that commission is by building deep, long-term partnerships with particular Christian communities around the world—strengthening and supporting them, listening to and learning from them—believing that no one is better equipped to transform a culture through the love of Christ than its own thriving local church.

  • Cuba: We partner with First Presbyterian Church of Havana and visit regularly to encourage the believers there in their ministry. 
  • Egypt: Our most longstanding Global Partnership with Heliopolis Evangelical Church in Cairo.
  • Guatemala: Our newest and most travel-accessible partnership. We partner with multiple ministries working to alleviate poverty and hopelessness and strengthen communities. 
  • Mongolia: We partner with Campus Crusade for Christ Mongolia in an extraordinary opportunity to resource the first- and second-generation church in Mongolia, where the gospel only came about 30 years ago.
