Bringing believers together from across Devon to transform the marketplace.
We host business networking breakfasts in Exeter and Plymouth on a regular basis. See our online schedule for details. In Exeter we meet at the Toby Carvery, Middlemoor. These breakfasts often feature talks from Christian entrepreneurs and ministry leaders.

Our leaders, Barrie Townsend and Frank Bennett are available to chat and provide friendly support.

CrossLife Testimony evenings are informal gatherings in a pub where you can invite friends to hear how God has transformed lives.
