Jon Cyrus

Regional Coordinator for Men at the Cross-Central

(jon.c@crossmg.org)

After multiple invitations from a very persistent friend, I attended a Men At The Cross weekend retreat in 2011. The experience was unique and powerful. However, it has been the ongoing connections with authentic men through staffing retreats and a weekly “Redemption Group” that have made the most significant impact. Through these connections I have experienced God’s grace at a deeper level than ever before. Many years of theological study prepared me well to preach and teach the Bible. Yet, it left me disconnected from my heart and longing to experience the love and power of Jesus. The Cross Ministry Group community has been a remarkable catalyst for support and growth on my journey with Christ.

In 2006 I graduated from The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary with an MDiv. I have been the pastor of First Baptist Church of Prospect since 2005. Prior to moving to Louisville, KY for seminary I had a career in higher education and sales in my home state of West Virginia. I have been married to Lisa since 1994 and we are proud parents of three daughters.

Jill Anthony

Regional Coordinator for Women at the Cross - East Coast

(jill@crossmg.org)

Jill attended Women at the Cross in October 2015 and has staffed many times since. She is an actor-by-trade and loves to come alongside people in this crazy journey called life. She has a heart for equipping and empowering women with skills on the weekends that extend into the rest of their lives.

She lives in Queens, NY, with her husband, Judah, and two kitties: Pip and Tink.

Jon Douglass

Regional Coordinator for Men at the Cross-East Coast

(jon.d@crossmg.org)

Jonathan Douglass had been a professional counselor for seven years when a friend suggested attending a MATC weekend would be “his kind of thing”. He attended in New York in 2016 and immediately fell in love with the process. He experienced a connection with God and others on the weekend that was profound and continues to happen for him each and every weekend. Few other things in his life have served to aid his growth spiritually, mentally, emotionally and even professionally in as significant a way as MATC. He is passionate about telling others about the ministry and delights in sharing in the joy and freedom of those who attend their first weekend.

Jonathan and Annie have been married 20 years, have three children, and live in Egg Harbor Township, NJ. Jon operates a private counseling practice. He has an Masters in Professional Counseling from Liberty University.

Natasha Moros

Co-Regional Coordinator for Women at the Cross - West

(natasha@crossmg.org)

I attended Women at the Cross in April of 2019 and have staffed every Colorado weekend since. As I think back to my initial weekend, I am reminded of just how hidden I was, years of not feeling valued or seen, not feeling worthy of any blessing God was sending my way were wearing me down. Although I looked put together on the outside I needed more, I wanted more. My insides were heavy in shame, grief and sadness. And almost every relationship I engaged in was burdened with an expectation of performance.

What I experienced on the weekend changed it all, not overnight and not without stretching myself…but things changed. I met a community of women willing to risk being seen. Women grounded in His Holy truth. Women who are open and accepting, free of judgement. Women who are willing to lay down expectations and be authentic, true and vulnerable.

I have walked with this Ministry for five years as a volunteer and I am grateful for every step. I love staffing the weekends, I love the work that takes place and the freedom that is found. I love the continuation groups and the community that is formed in authentic relationships. I am so beyond grateful for the opportunity to continue on this journey, standing shoulder to shoulder with this community.

I have been married to Marty for 23 years, we have three children, Tucker (26), Faith (11) and Eliot (8) and one amazing daughter in law Alyson! I worked in management and administration for 20 years before quitting my day job to be a stay at home mom. Just four years ago my husband and I were called to start a home church, His Shelter. We have been amazed and humbled by the goodness of our Heavenly Father. There is NOTHING He cannot do and no one He cannot use. God is good indeed!

Alicia Dennis is a Colorado native, currently living in Firestone, CO. She has been married to her high school sweetheart Joel for 25 years, they have 12 children, 7 sons and 5 daughters. Alicia has a BS in business management and has worked in the Engineering and Medical fields as an office manager over the years. While she has strong administrative and managerial skills, her main focus for the past two decades has been on raising and homeschooling her children who range in age from 21 to 4.

Alicia attended WATC in the spring of 2012 after Joel encouraged her to attend and has always shared that it was the most challenging and yet transformative experience in her spiritual development following her salvation. Through the teachings and concepts of the ministry she has developed a passion for helping women walk in their true identity in Christ in ALL areas of life but particularly in motherhood. The hybrid role of Event Coordinator and Co-Regional Coordinator is the perfect blend of her administrative skills and shepherding heart.

TESTIMONIALS

I attended Women at the Cross in April of 2012. I was living in a shell, hiding from everyone and everything, including God. I came home from that weekend with answers about who I am to God, ways to identify the lies I was telling myself and believing about myself and tools to help heal some of the relationships within my family. I am often amazed at the transformation that has taken place in me over the last three years.
