Good morning and Happy Monday Crosspointers! It’s a beautiful day here in the Ville. Our church has been humming with activity the past few days. Here’s the scoop:
– ‘Daniel: Tame Your Lions’ week 2. We looked at Daniel’s character (Daniel 6:4) and how the world is filled with size-mologists who are sizing you up looking for faults.
– Worship was awesome yesterday! I really love the “Not to Us” into “We Stand”. Awesome guitar Johnny! Amanda’s lead on “All the Way My Savior Leads Me” was perfect and it was the perfect song to wrap up with!
– Our new Crosspoint travel mugs made their debut yesterday! New guests can trade in a filled-in Welcome Card for a shiny new mug. Nice! The rest of us can purchase one for $15. Bring it to church every week and help us use/waste less cups. 🙂
– Our ‘Mozambique Missions Yard Sale’ was a big success! Thanks to all who donated, volunteered, and showed up. The big inflatable, kids games w/ prizes, face painting, bbq, curly fries, bake sale, etc, and the weather, made for a fantastic time for everyone. All said and done we probably raised around $2,500!
– Our Annual Meeting for the 08-09 church year was last night. We have SO much to be thankful for. We were one of the top 15 churches in the denomination for growth in 07-08 and we surpassed that again this past year! We had an excellent year financially and we’ve set some God-sized goals for the coming year. I goofed on one issue last night and need to apologize. 🙂 I probably goofed on more than one, but this one was obvious. I went in to the meeting thinking that all members could vote on the Nominating Committee’s recommendations for LBA. I had a brain cramp during the meeting and we did a ‘covenant member’ vote on the LBA and Delegates to District Conference. As of the June 7-11 General Conference of the Wesleyan Church, 2008, memorial 116, 558, 4, community members can vote on all matters other than the reception of covenant members. My bad.
Thanks again for being the greatest church anywhere! Have an awesome week.
