Rocky Gillmore, Worship Pastor
rocky.gillmore@crossroadstw.org
Rocky surrendered to full-time ministry in 1995, and he has been a part of the Crossroads staff since October 1995.

On several occasions, Crossroads invited Rocky to lead music for special occasions. God placed a love in his heart for the church even before he surrendered to full-time service. Through prayer and seeking God's will for his family, it was obvious that Crossroads was where God wanted Rocky and his family to plant their lives and do Kingdom work.

stan.sullinger@crossroadstw.org
Stan joined the Crossroads staff in August of 2004.

Our new church facility, along with our tradition of transparent connection, points to a bright future for Christ here in The Woodlands area.
