Crossland Worship is a worship band and ministry based out of Bowling Green, Kentucky that has been leading worship at camps and conferences all over the country all while fulfilling a call to intentionally pour deeper into the local church and it’s community.

Crossland Worship has a longing to see young people engage in worship together and simultaneously grow deeper as a body of believers. We are beyond excited to be partnering with Student Life to impact Pastors, students and staff in a way that they can go change their local church and communities!
