Crosby Chapel was established in 1943. We have grown from a chapel with only a single room and an outhouse to the spacious church that it is today, seating over 400 individuals. It was remodeled in 1982 and there have been two additional expansions since then. The first expansion was in 1990 and the most recent in 2001. These expansions significantly enlarged our sanctuary, added classrooms, constructed offices for the staff, enlarged the youth room, built a gymnasium, and a large social area we like to call the foyer. We hold one service each Sunday morning with Sunday school after service. We practice open Communion on the first Sunday of every month and we baptize those who profess Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior on a volunteer basis. We support a message that is heavily grace-based; convicting without being judgmental. We accept Christians of all denominations and respect the beliefs of individuals with various Christian backgrounds.The PeopleAt Crosby we are friendly, casual, family-oriented and come from all walks of life. We have members who are military personnel, civilian workers, business professionals, laborers, teachers, homemakers, and more. The main thing we have in common is that we are saved through faith in Christ by the grace of God. We are a tightly woven church family ranging from new members to those who can remember having to use the outhouse! Because of our history together, we have a strong volunteer base and excellent ministries in place.MinistriesOur ministries are strong and growing at Crosby Chapel. Our Sunday services include worship and praise, a children’s church ministry, and an adult discussion on the message.

In addition to these ministries, we also have many events and activities throughout the year such as carnivals, gatherings, campouts, and more that reach our community and serve the needs of our congregation.
