The Beginning

The seeds of Shepherd’s Crossing were planted when the faith community in Manhattan noted an increasing number of people asking for financial assistance. Pastors associated with the Manhattan Ministerial Association conceived the idea of establishing one location funded by local churches to serve people in need. The doors of Shepherd’s Crossing opened for its first clients in 2001. Today, about 36 churches, several civic organizations, businesses and many individuals provide the necessary funding to assist those in need in our community.

The shared mission of diverse local churches, is how Shepherd’s Crossing got its name.
