“Crossbridge Solutions continues to be a great partner for Mt. Gilead Church. The team at Crossbridge has helped us navigate everything from construction loans to carpet colors. Working with Jon and Anne has been a blessing to our church. On the financial side with Jon, we have the assurance that we have an advocate looking out for our best interest. On the building side with Anne, we have great confidence in her ability to help us with cost-conscious and attractive interior design. In a world with a lot of options, we are continually grateful to have Jon and Anne as our chosen partner.

“Speaking from a pastor’s perspective with no experience on leading a building project, I was greatly served by both Jon and Anne’s work on our project at Pennington Park Church. The combination of Jon’s expertise in guiding us through the complicated finance world and Anne’s leadership over the details of the project and the interior design made our first building project a success. Beyond Jon and Anne’s gifts and strengths, they both highly value the relationship side throughout the entire process by listening well, caring genuinely, and being flexible. I highly recommend them!

“Working with Crossbridge Soutions has been an incredible experience and helped us take new ground like never before. They helped us overcome financial hurdles and move from renting our own space to financing the renovation of our first permanent building. Their help with our interior design has been superb as well. I would highly recommend them to any church who is looking to go to the next level and maximize their effectiveness for the kingdom!”
“We utilized Crossbridge for their interior design expertise when we added a new children’s ministry wing and renovated other spaces in our campus. We could not be happier with the outcome. Their guidance in selecting colors, flooring, furniture and fixtures gave the space a timeless but fresh feel that has excited our people.”
“Not only was Crossbridge incredibly important in terms of conducting a thorough financial analysis so we knew what was feasible and appropriate, they helped deliver a banking solution that was in line with our church and understood our mission. ”
“Crossbridge was instrumental in helping us consider various lending strategies for our project. They listened closely to our short and long-term needs and collaborated with us to implement the ideal lending solution. Behind the scenes, Crossbridge took care of all of the communication with the lenders which helped us to focus on other project tasks and ministries. We sincerely value our partnership with Crossbridge and look forward to working with them in the future!”
“It was in what appeared to be daunting, and maybe not even possible, where Crossbridge excelled. They came alongside us and walked with us through the entirety of the project. They carefully listened to our objectives, assisted in assessing our opportunities and limitations, and saw that our mission was sustained throughout the project. The result is that we have a new campus in which we are thriving along with a loan structure that supports our mission. Crossbridge has been, and continues to be, a strategic resource for our organization and I highly recommend their services.”
“Crossbridge found a way to help us achieve our goal when our lender relationship of 40 years failed in underwriting correctly. Crossbridge’s expertise and relationships with others got our deal done and quickly! They even helped us sharpen up our understabdubg if giw ti best hand our fund going forward. We think very highly of the people at Crossbridge.”
“In choosing you to serve as our owner’s representative, we carefully considered the talents, experience and expertise that you would bring on our behalf. You listened closely and paid attention to our needs and wants and walked us through each step of a complex project. Your forward thinking, flexibility, and can-do attitude made what was at times a challenging project bearable, and in the end, very successful.”
“I loved not being involved with the on-site construction meetings and issues and allowing us to step out of the technical details was great. I would absolutely recommend Crossbridge to other churches.”
“Crossbridge understood the needs that we shared and had partners who were there to meet the needs. Crossbridge’s experience in lending and consulting to churches was clearly demonstrated in our building process. We developed a wonderful working relationship. If we have additional needs in the future, Crossbridge will be our first call.”
“The greatest value delivered to our church by Crossbridge was assistance in putting together a three-year financial projection and preparation of the loan package for use with lenders. In addition, Crossbridge’s knowledge of engineering, construction and church operations allowed them to represent us with the architect, builder and subcontractors in a way that we never could have done by ourselves. All this was done with a Kingdom-minded approach to everything. ”
“Crossbridge is well-versed in what is most important to lenders. They ensured our loan package prominently communicated those items with which lenders are most concerned. It allowed us to move forward with confidence because we knew our project was viable and what we wanted to build was affordable and bankable from a lending perspective.”
