Happenings!

I'm very excited about some happenings going on within our Crosspoint community these days!! We have a couple of new small groups with some great leaders that have just formed and many new people in these groups! Small groups are where it's at! Secondly, we're having a Tailgate Party Sunday, October 11 that is going to be awesome! We'll have a shortened version of our worship gathering and then we're moving outside to the courtyard parking area in front of Ardrey Kell and tailgating complete with bouncies for the kids, cornhole games, football and frisbee throwing, grilling and the company of lots of people as we sit out around the back of our cars and have a great time together! This is a first for us and maybe for a church in Charlotte on a Sunday morning, but it should be fun! I've never had a hotdog at 10:30 in the morning but I'm sure it will be just as good as one eaten at noon! Can't wait to see how well everyone decorates their cars and trucks like a real game, too. Also, our Kids ministry is going to rock this October as they prepare 100 boxes to be sent to Operation Christmas Child. They'll be spending the entire service on October 25th to put the goodies in the shoeboxes that will be sent to kids all over the world! Very cool. Lastly, we're planning our first ever overseas missions trip to Kenya for next Summer. Over twenty people showed up at our Info Meeting or expressed an interest in going! We'll probably be partnering with another church in the area which will draw two churches together for a global outreach that is going to be awesome! It's exciting to be a part of Crosspoint these days as we seek to love God, love others and serve our world!
