Christian Survival Island

Beloved,

It’s messy, this war. The shrapnel of flesh and bone is nowhere to be found; still the death toll rises. Dark and light come to blows in a fiery clash and the battlefield rattles beneath our boots. The arms we bear—love, mercy, grace—have brought rebels to ruin and taken down Kings.  -Toni Birdsong

Friday evening, July 8th 

7pm 

Fireside Room of Cross Points Church

We'll have island-themed refreshments and games along with our speaker for the evening, Tonya McGhee--all to help us learn more about spiritual warfare.    Nursery care provided if you pre-register your children--please sign up at the table in the foyer after the service or RSVP to your evite.  This is going to be a fun and thoughtful evening!
Wear your best island attire!

BLOOM! 2010 Year in Review

Dearest Sisters,
Happy New Year!  2010 was such an incredible year-- BLOOM! sponsored a concert with Lori Harris and a benefit for Advice & Aid Pregnancy.  We spent time with Bible teachers Linda Fields, Judy Mayes, and Beth Moore (virtually).  We joined Eau for a Culinary Tour of Shawnee, and honored Cross Points missionary women by sending them To the World with Love.  Enjoy this last look back and then resolve to join our activities in 2011!

Thank you Cross Points!

BLOOM! wishes to thank Cross Points Church for the generous outpouring of love extended to our beloved Missionary Women!  We collected almost $1300 for our six missionary guests in attendance during our conference event.  You have truly given of yourselves...To the World with Love.

Also we have had a fantastic response to the dental supplies collection for Reynosa!  We anticipate good reports from the mission trip and especially the children's dental clinic.  We are able to collect additional toothbrushes, toothpaste, or floss until the group leaves after Christmas--please give supplies to Anna Unmack or Jan Brooks.

To the World with Love!

Join us Thursday evening,  November 18th, 7 pm in the Fellowship Hall of Cross Points Church.  Enjoy Worship, small group discussion, and light refreshments with our missionary women!  Nursery is provided, please sign up at the BLOOM! table in the foyer after church and let us know the number of children and their ages.

We are collecting a special love offering to bless our missionary women.  Drop it in the offering box at church or bring it to the BLOOM! table in the foyer.  Got a question for our missionaries? You can submit it at our table--we'll try to ask it during the discussion group time. 

And a special Saturday morning (Nov 20) bonus--Meet us at Cross Points Church at 10 am for an informal "Walk and Talk."  After a week of special refreshments, we'll spend some time walking the halls and sharing with our missionary women.  Exercise and fellowship--what could be better?
