To make sure you’re in the informational loop: Parents, send an e-mail to Brent@Crossroadsbible.org and ask to be added to the e-mail list (please include the gender and year of graduation of your students). Parents & students: If you aren’t friends with Brent on Facebook you’ll want to do that ASAP—if you are, you should be getting these announcements in your message box every Thursday. And, you can follow BrentMcKinney on Twitter). For students only, if you aren’t getting text updates from Elli (she sent out a test text a few weeks ago so if you didn’t get it, you aren’t on it) you’ll want to send her your name and number!



In-home small groups will begin at CBC on August 24…we’ll begin in area homes on August 31. We’ll be looking for host homes for some of our small groups, so if you’re interested in being a host home for a semester, e-mail Brent@crossroadsbible.org.

The FINAL WATERISBASIC.ORG grand total for the school year was $1,516! After speaking with the director of the organization, he wants to see if we can complete the giving for the well, so we’ll continue our once per month giving in Sunday School (WE START ON AUGUST 28) and we’ll have a few new opportunities thrown in! More information available in Sunday School, and you can check our progress on the Facebook page “Water is Basic-CBC”

CBC Blood Drive: Sunday, July 31, 8AM—1PM. If you’re able to give, it’s a perfect time to help out by donating! Sign ups for times in the foyer on the main level on the desk between the stairwells.
