CrossRoads Mission is a non-profit, neighborhood ecumenical Christian mission to support members of the community. The mission opened its doors January 23, 2007  at first in a location on sixth street and after the devastation of the 2008 floods, the mission established temporary offices, while moving forward to establish a permanent home.  On March 3, 2009 the mission moved to its new home at 1006 - 2nd Street SW, in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. The mission currently supports over 1500 family units representing 3600 people, over 50% of which are children.



Diakonos Mission, Inc. was incorporated as a State of Iowa non-profit corporation on November 10, 2006, d.b.a. Crossroads Mission.  The mission's Form 1023 has been approved and CrossRoads Mission now has IRS 501(c)(3) status. 

The mission is governed by a board of directors who volunteer their time and talents to serve the community. The directors meet once a month to set policy and oversee  the financial integrity of Crossroads Mission.  Pat Kane,  the mission's executive director, reports to the Board of Directors.

The daily activities of Crossroads Mission are directed by Vicar Pat Kane, chaplain and founder of Crossroads Mission.  Staff and volunteers assist in the daily activities.
