Now that the fall semester has started here at Crossroads we have quite a few things to tell you about. Here's what's on our immediate agenda this weekend:
NEWCOMER’S LUNCH
October 3rd, 12:15pm
Have you started attending Crossroads this year? We’re planning to have a special lunch here on Sunday, Oct. 3, at 12:15pm in the cafe for fellowship, to meet other newcomers and to meet Pastor Steve and the staff. It’s free! Just fill out the inside of the Sunday bulletin tab and drop it in the offering basket as they come by. Let us know on the tab if you need childcare for your children (birth to 5 years old).
CHRISTMAS IN SEPTEMBER
Drop off donations at lobby table
It’s tough being on the mission field during Christmas, so every year we collect money to give our missionaries an extra blessing. We’re collecting funds every Sunday this month at the lobby display.
GIRLTALK
Our fall kick-off will be Sept. 19th with lunch catered by Rosa’s ($4). Sign-up at the women’s registration table in the lobby. We need reservations for lunch. GirlTalk mingles the generations of women at CBC for fellowship and mutual encouragement.
WE NEED COUPONS
Our Tattooed Hearts ministry at McFadden Ranch is in need of coupons to buy items for the boys incarcerated there. We need coupons for Axe and Old Spice products, Head and Shoulders shampoo, Colgate toothpaste, Johnson and Johnson baby lotion, and Risk and Irish Spring shower gel. The items are used as rewards for the boys. Drop off coupons at the Ministry Center.
MEN’S RETREAT SIGN-UPS UNDERWAY
Hey guys! Come join us for a meaningful time in the beautiful woods of East Texas at the CBC Men’s Retreat October 22-24. Teacher and discipler Ron Ritchie will be our guest speaker and we’ll have special music led by Sammy Davenport and company. There will be time for playing sports, hanging out, enjoying great food, and digging deeper into God’s word. Register in the CBC lobby or online. The special $99 early bird price ends Sept. 26th, so sign up today!
HOPE FOR KIDS
Sign-ups are now underway in the lobby for Hope For Kids sponsorships, which support school children in Chambellan, Haiti. Drop by our table on Sunday to see how you can help provide a quality education for a child who cannot afford it.
CBC FAMILIES POOL PARTY!
All CBC kids in elementary school are invited to bring their parents for a night of fun at the “CBC Back to School Splash” pool party & ice cream social, Sept. 24, 7-9pm at the home of Adela Register. Please RSVP on the CBC Families Yahoo site or RSVP “Yes”-only replies to Dawn Marshall.

Come and join the new CBC Photo Club! Spend time with people who share your passion for photography. If you are interested in joining, please send an e-mail to cbcphotoclub@gmail.com.
