This document records the verification of
Cross Roads Bible Church
Durban, South Africa · listed since 2026-10-08
Provisionally listed

What we checked

  • Not a duplicate: no similarly named church is listed with us
  • The name reads as a real congregation
  • Contact email reviewed (crossroadsbiblechurch.co.za)
  • The address given (crossroadsbiblechurch.co.za) did not answer when we tried it, with and without www; a mistyped address says nothing about the congregation itself

What we found

We searched for "Cross Roads Bible Church" in Durban, for the bare word "crossroadsbiblechurch", and for the name on Facebook with South Africa, and we found no page, directory entry, news item or denominational listing for a congregation of this name in Durban or anywhere in South Africa. Every "Crossroads Bible Church" result belongs to a church elsewhere, mainly in the United States: Facebook pages for Los Alamos, New Mexico, Grand Rapids, Michigan and Bellevue, Washington (facebook.com), each with its own US address and website, plus sites for Manley, Nebraska, Candia, New Hampshire, San Jose and Huntingdon Valley. The only Durban match with a similar name is a different congregation, Crossroads Family Church at 1 Maurice Nichols Rd, Pinetown, Durban (trip.com map listing), which is not the same body. The findings are summarized here for space; the full research was weighed in the review.

Search conclusion: no evidence found. An independent web search is part of every review; an online page alone does not prove a congregation exists.

We have asked this church for one piece of extra evidence: a photo, a link, its denomination, or a church that can vouch for it. The moment we can verify, this report is upgraded. Without a response, the listing is paused after 14 days.

Faith.network reviews church signups in good faith, using automated checks of publicly available information at the review date shown above. We have not visited this congregation in person; that this church exists therefore remains an assumption supported by the evidence above, not an established fact.
