About Us

Welcome to Crossroads!

People who visit us for the first time often comment on how much they enjoy the dynamic interactions among such a wide variety of people. We speak English at our gatherings, and all age groups are represented, including many children and teens, and a large student and young adult population. As you hang around Crossroads a bit longer you will find out that relationships matter to God and we want them to matter to us. Therefore many of us come together regularly in smaller groups which are more conducive for building relationships.

Our hope is that Crossroads will be a place, where, no matter who you are or where you’ve been in life, you can come and experience a life transforming encounter.

What We Believe

Vision & Mission

Our History

teaching pastor

Originally from South Africa, I am an ordained Methodist minister with over 20 years of pastoral experience, and have been blessed enough to have pastored in both Cape Town and Johannesburg. I have a passion for the local church and to see the kingdom of God built here in the Netherlands. We are excited to be part of this amazing international and diverse community called Crossroads.

I have been married to the most amazing person for the last 23 years, Catherine, we have two amazing children, Matthew and Bethany.

Johan Verboom

Executive pastor

I started working for Crossroads even before I graduated from Tyndale Theological seminary in 2001. Worn many hats and served in many capacities over the years, my passion for Crossroads never changed: to see Crossroads become a spiritual home for people even for those who are still investigating their faith.

Married to a wonderful lady, Manja, for the last 25 years, we have four sons, Noah, Nathan, Ezra and Jorai. Both my wife and I were born and raised in the Netherlands and currently live in Hoofddorp.
