History

The concept of Crossroads emerged in 2004 during discussions on how to extend ÍæÅ¼½ã½ã's successful Church in the 21st Century initiative beyond its initial two-year period.  Two strategic directions were adopted:  first, to establish a permanent , and, second, to develop an online program for adult Catholics to promote both greater understanding and personal growth in the Catholic faith. While not formally part of the C21 Center, Crossroads maintains a collaborative relationship with the Center and shares its mission of service to American Catholics in the new century.

In Fall 2004 Crossroads partnered with ÍæÅ¼½ã½ã's Institute of Religious Education and Pastoral Ministry (IREPM) to launch its first courses. In June 2008, Crossroads joined Weston Jesuit School of Theology and the IREPM to form the ÍæÅ¼½ã½ã School of Theology and Ministry, named the Clough School of Theology and Ministry in 2024.

I feel so empowered since taking this course. . . . I have the utmost confidence that we will continue to pass on our faith for another 2000 years.
