Located near the University of Cincinnati campus, Crossroads Uptown serves the college community and Uptown neighborhoods north of downtown Cincinnati. Built in 1873, the building was once home to St. George Catholic Church. The church closed, and in 2008 the beloved steeples burned in an electrical fire. With a mission to breathe new life into the neighborhood, Crossroads purchased the building, and agreed to restore the steeples. The result is a state-of-the-art building that combines the industrial feel of Crossroads with the historic character of the original Catholic church.

Seriously. This is a real place for real people. Regardless of what you think about God, you are welcome here. In a nutshell, you can wear jeans, or dress up if you want. The coffee is free, so grab a cup before you sit down. The music is great and you’ll hear straight up Biblical truth that you can apply to your everyday life. The rest is up to you.
Lena is the Uptown Community Pastor, but is currently on maternity leave until mid-August. In the meantime, Josh Wade is the interim Uptown community pastor. Josh graduated from the University of Cincinnati in 2011 and has been on staff at Crossroads since 2015. You may also recognize Josh from the Royle Family commercials from the Super Bowl of Preaching.
Our building isn't just for services. Come for a meeting, just to hang out with friends, or even for a quiet place to study or pray. Enjoy free coffee, free wi-fi and plenty of couches.
