The Crusaders hearts desire is to spread the Word of God through the singing and testifying as doors are open. We do not like to miss an opportunity to share Christ, because we believe there could be someone lost in each service or someone needing encouragement from the Lord. God wants to use us, to plant a seed, harvest a seed, or plow the field. When we don't show up, as commanded, then God's Will is not done, in our lives. We and the people miss the blessings of God.
