Announcements for Oct. 2

Crossroads Bible Church Senior High Student Ministry October 2, 2011 Announcements

*Don’t forget to stop by the “Hoots ‘N Salutes” table BEFORE CLASS starts!*

Sunday School, 10:30—11:45AM in the Dungeon:
Brent McKinney, teacher: Communitas Unleashed (#5)
We’ll continue discussing the idea of “communitas,” a deeper view of “community.” We’ve looked at defining this community, and now we’re going to look at how Christ taught the disciples to develop their understanding. We’ll look at Luke 13: 22-25 to see who gets in the Kingdom. NOTES AVAILABLE AT CBCHIGHSCHOOL . BLOGSPOT . COM!

Change For A Buck resumes today in Sunday School!
We’re taking up an offering of your loose change each Sunday during worship…and once we spend a few weeks building up the reserves, YOU will start our new ministry of fostering “change” with the money. You will look for ways you can affect change in someone else’s life or circumstances, apply for the money and use the offerings to do that very ministry!

If you signed up for the ski trip, you can pick up your deposit check from Brent in Sunday School. We didn’t have enough students sign up.

CBC’s YEAR OF GONZO STUDENT ART UPDATE:
October’s project begins today: Random Acts of Kindness Index Cards
Simply get 5 index cards, and design them in a way that creatively encourages a complete stranger. Take a photo of each card you design when you place it to be discovered (like under someone at the mall’s wiper blade, or about to be placed in a random locker vent, or at a bookstore about to be placed in a book. Print your favorite photos on 8.5x11 and turn them in by Sunday, October 30!
You can still turn in Book/DVD Spine Poetry (where you take a book or DVD spine and stack them up in such a way that the titles create a poem. Then take a photograph of that poem (print it on 8.5x11), blackout art, or truth-telling from the last 3 months!
