Tabernacle Tours Sunday

Have you ever wondered what the golden lampstand, show bread table or Ark of the Covenant looked like?

-----

"Now the first covenant had regulations for worship and also an earthly sanctuary. A tabernacle was set up. In its first room were the lampstand, the table and the consecrated bread; this was called the Holy Place. Behind the second curtain was a room called the Most Holy Place, which had the golden altar of incense and the gold-covered Ark of the Covenant?" (Hebrews 9:1-4)

Have you ever wondered what the golden lampstand, bread table or Ark of the Covenant looked like? Wouldn't you love to go back in time and see them so they would be seared in your memory forever?

Well, no time travel is required but we just happen to have a tabernacle in the Crossroads building, including replicas of the holy objects mentioned in the Bible. No kidding! Our women's ministry has constructed a replica of the tabernacle in Room 203 and has shown how the various elements relate to the person and work of Jesus Christ. It's amazing!
Sunday morning we are inviting you to come and tour our replica tabernacle and be
amazed for yourself. See how the high priest offered sacrifices, cleansed his hands,
prepared the showbread, tended the lampstand, and offered blood for forgiveness on the Ark's Mercy Seat.

We will have five tours open to everyone (limited to 50 people per tour) starting at 9:00.
The tour begins at the entrance to Room 203B upstairs. Each tour lasts about 20 minutes.
Tour times are 9:00, 10:30, 11:00, 11:30 and 12:15.

Octoberfest Tonight

Hey Kids and Parents! Our Octoberfest family fun night begins at 6:45 this evening at Crossroads. We have bounce houses set up, a station for kids to trade tickets for goodies, carnival games and lots of food. The admission price is one bag of candy per child. That way we'll ensure that there's enough candy to go around. We'll wrap up the festivities around 8pm.

Come on out to Crossroads!

Career Network & Workshop: Here to Serve

Recent job reports show that unemployment in America has finally reached double digits — 10 percent — and for a country of 300 million, that means 30 million Americans are currently out of work. Maybe you're one of them. Even though the job search is tough and often frustrating, Crossroads has two support and resource groups that meet regularly to help you navigate your search and — hopefully — land a solid position.

 CBC Career Network — http://www.cbccareernetwork.com
Every Wednesday night from 6:45-8:30 the Career Network holds free meetings downstairs in Room 15 (nicknamed "The Temple"). There is no charge to attend. Rex Jones, a human resources professional, leads this ministry, which seeks to encourage job seekers, offer resume help, and share job leads. Just come on through the lower entrance to the CBC building and Room 15 is immediately to your left.

CBC Career Transition Workshop —

Once a month during the school year we hold a free all-day Saturday workshop in the auditorium, where human resources professionals will offer job search advice, resume help, and help you network as you search for a job. The next workshop is October 9th. November's workshop will be the 13th, 9am to 4pm. We ask that you reserve a spot so we can set up enough tables, chairs, etc. and make sure the workshop does not get so big that it's not as effective for you. E-mail HERE to reserve your free spot.

May the Lord bless your search! And remember that we're here to support you in His Name.
