Crossroads Life Church began in the town of Arthur, Ontario in 1985. John and Jan Finochio were installed as Lead Pastors in January of 2000. Since then, Crossroads has grown from a handful of people to a thriving family church embracing all ages.
Ministries have grown to include a School of Ministry, a growing Youth Ministry, Connect Groups, short-term missions, a youth summer camp, family camp, Men’s and Women’s ministries, as well as hosting a Canada Day celebration that has seen crowds well over 2000 people come annually.

We are an autonomous local church that is self-governing and self-supporting. We are in fellowship with MFI for accountability and relationship.

CLC continues in its singular focus to be a church that connects people to God and to one another. We see our role as being a place in the midst of the community that will proclaim and encourage others in the timeless values of faith, hope and love that are found in Jesus Christ and His gospel. Whether it’s in a song, a Sunday morning message, a small group discussion, on the job, at the office, at home around the dinner table or in a foreign nation half-way around the globe we are dedicated to making fully dedicated followers of Jesus who will love God and serve others.
