INTERNATIONAL MISSIONS

LaCroix New Testament Mission Haiti

Thursday September 29, 2016

at 6:00 PM

317 Oriskany Blvd, Whitesboro, NY 13492

Our mission team has returned and we want to share with you

all that was accomplished with the help of so many.

God is good!

At this event a video will walk you through Crosspoint Church’s week long

ministry to the people of LaCroix. It will be eye opening to see our team in

action and to have a little insight into daily life in rural Haiti. Haiti was recently

proclaimed the poorest nation on earth.

(based on data from the World Bank 2016)

Team members will give a short synopsis of the various areas of service. It is

amazing what a few missionaries, equipped by you with the proper resources

can do partnering with the Haitian based LaCroix Haiti Mission.

So…Please come and share an evening with us learning more about how we

can all change the world one life…one day at a time. We will be announcing

our potential 2017 mission date for our return to LaCroix… perhaps you will

feel called to serve with us.

Refreshments and a “taste of Haiti” dish will be served!!!

Child Care will be provided.

Mark your calendars!

FYI

Meetings...Meetings...Meetings

No one enjoys attending meetings just for the sake

of having a meeting

However…

There are times when meeting together has great benefits for all!

Cases in point…

Crosspoint Church Growth Team

Sunday, October 2, 2016, Room 102, after service

This will be our first meeting as we consider a renewed program for growing our church body...bring more people to Christ... and developing

two church campuses.

Anyone truly interested in church growth... or feels that God is calling you to be a leader in this ministry please see Dan or Madel Beck.

The most important aspect to successful church growth is the answer a simple question. As we are all in this together...ultimately our growth will depend not on a few...or one or two leaders...it can only be accomplished

when all of us are excited about what God is doing in our midst...

So as a body we have to... we must... answer that simple question or make the decision ...

As A Church Do We...Do You... Really, Really, Want To Grow?

Stewardship-Budget

Sunday, October 9, 2016, Room 102, after service

Yes, it is that time of the year again when we begin our “Budget Process”

Each year the Stewardship Team attempts to refine the procedure.

This year, we are requesting that ALL who will be turning in a budget

request for their ministry attend this meeting.

Pastor Sam will present his message of the importance of having a “unified” goal in preparing our budget for the next fiscal year.

Budget forms will be passed out at this time and instructions for

preparing budgets will also be discussed.

This is an important time for your ministry...please plan on attending.

I would like to hold an introductory meeting (and cast the vision) on this Tuesday, September 27th.

We are going to meet at the Whitesboro building at 7pm.

Thank you so much for your willingness to consider this ministry! Some of you have declared what you'd like to do, and I know that some of you are still

praying. Attending this meeting does not commit you in any way! So please do still come if you've not yet decided.

Again, let me know if you can make it. Have a great week!

Please contact Sarah Macri at 315-552-4463(leave a voicemail of no answer) or scmacri@gmail.com if you are interested or would like more information on

these new opportunities to serve!

National Collection Week is November 14th - 21st! It'll be here before you know it!

are so grateful to those in the church who have donated their

properties and creativity towards making this the best amazing

race yet. You don’t want to miss this event, so invite some friends

NIGHT OF PRAYER Sunday night, October 2

All people of all ages are invited to join us for a night of prayer.

We have a great desire to reach our area with the Gospel and we

ability to do that in a huge way, so we want to cover our

community and our church in prayer as we boldly share Christ

with a lost world.

P.S.

doing. If you need a ride, contact one of your youth leaders or Bobby at the number
