Crossgrid is building what it calls a generous Kingdom economy — not a congregation, but an engine whose strength is aimed at the mission of the church. Its pattern is Gather, Multiply, Deploy: bring Christian companies onto one trusted grid, let the network strengthen itself, and eventually turn that strength toward funded mission.^1
Its first live beacon is LocateFaith, a nationwide directory of Christian-owned businesses across all fifty states. Searchers can find plumbers, counselors, contractors, and other local trades, and compare real customer reviews before they call.^2 Every listed owner has signed a statement of faith that is classically orthodox — Scripture as final authority, the Trinity, and salvation by grace through faith in Christ.^4 Search is free on the web; business listings are subscription-based, and every membership includes access to a local LocateFaith Hub, where owners meet in person each month for networking, prayer, and referrals.^3
The builders are four friends from Long Island, New York, who attend V1 Church: Alex (CEO), Raf (CTO), Antonio (CFO), and Anthony (head of community). After years building a larger marketplace that did not gain traction, they stripped it back in 2026 and relaunched as LocateFaith, keeping only the simple map people actually wanted.^5 Later Deploy work — churches bought back, provision restored — is named as the destination, not a product you can use today.^1
Notable:
- LocateFaith's September 2026 whitepaper states a commitment already in force: 10% of gross revenue is deployed outward to churches, nonprofits, and causes serving people beyond its membership.^7
