Crossway Church gearing up for summer’s WinShape Camp

Published 7:11 am Monday, March 4, 2024

Crossway Church of Vicksburg is preparing for WinShape Camp this summer and a recent fundraiser has brought the congregation closer to its goal.

“A huge thank you to everyone that came out for our WinShape Fundraising Lunch,” church officials posted this week on social media. “We had a great time together and the fundraiser was a success, raising over $1,500 towards the WinShape Scholarship Fund!”

WinShape Camps for Communities is a day camp held at Crossway’s Vicksburg location at 1825 US Hwy-61 that uses both the church’s indoor and outdoor spaces to bring the atmosphere of a summer day camp to children in Vicksburg and the surrounding communities.
