My wife and I have been members for 15 years. If you expect church to be narrow minded, legalistic and to worship the Bible you will be surprised that CrossWalk checks none of those boxes. While the oldest Baptist church in Napa, (American Baptist, as in MLK's affiliation) founded in 1860, it is not stuck defending antiquated culture. It is egalitarian with women in pastoral roles, leadership and teaching positions. It is LGBTQ welcoming and fully affirming with members of that community participating in leadership. We also have outstanding teaching from toddlers through Middle School. Pastor Peter Shaw's teaching is intellectually challenging but emphasizes spiritual and meditative practices as well. It is a very relaxed, come as you are atmosphere full of real people. People of other faith practices are welcome here. Services at 9 and 10 AM.
We believe following Jesus also means serving the community in a sacrificial way. We host 40+ recovery groups on a weekly basis. Our parking lot is almost always busy. We operate a food pantry and supply food and cooking essentials to people moving off the street and into safe housing. We also work with other churches to feed unhoused people in Napa on the weekend. We provide space on our large campus for non-profits such as citizenship clinics and immigration legal aid. Our gym is used by schools, clubs and sports leagues.
Crosswalk is the first Emergency shelter to open and the last to close. Fifteen minutes and we can open the doors. During the recent earthquake and fires we housed evacuees and were an information hub. We are currently remodeling our large but antiquated kitchen to modern standards so as to be able to provide meals. The bathrooms and gym showers have been upgraded to ADA standards to better serve everyone.
Come experience CrossWalk. Instead of higher walls, we make bigger tables.

I'm thinking of attending church here on Sunday. I've met some great people in my neighborhood but crosswalk takes the cake. Come anytime a see for yourself. They give out food boxes an clothing. Ive attended a meeting or two here. Another great place to be when you want to hear a good word be in the company of loving an caring people please feel free to stop by, and give me a shout out! Kreektyme!!

I've been a member of Crosswalk for a year and a half. I love Sunday mornings now, because it's my community. Pastor Pete's teachings are well thought out and keep me on "my spiritual toes." Anyone who's looking for a congregation with an "outside of the box" philosophy, please come check us out!

Sorry to say that I was treated as if I was stealing their donated food...the old white-haired lady and a guy named mark yelled at me and threw me out, making sure that I was embarrassed by the few people there and the policeman on the premises...I will never go back to that church again. I am a disabled homeless veteran that fought for my country in Vietnam and am convinced that these so-called church people have scared away a lot of homeless and hungry folks like me as there were only four or five others gathering food. These church people are elitists and prejudiced that look down on those they are supposed to serve. I hope God will rain down his punishment on this church. .Homeless-Disabled veteran

This church offers assistance to homeless, food insecure and has been involved as a shelter for people who lost/were evacuated from their homes during fires. They also host meeting to help people with addiction.
