WEEKEND UPDATE (Reeeeeally Late Edition)

Wow...today really got away from me.  Sorry this post is so late in the day.  INCREDIBLE day at Crossroads yesterday, seriously just GREAT!  Here's a few quick take-aways from the weekend:
  • Saturday we had a small group leaders luncheon and I can tell you we have an amazing team of small group leaders who are really on the same page.  We have great small groups getting ready to launch our Spring Semester and another weekend left for sign up.  Get thyself to the lobby between first and second service, or after the second service this coming Sunday and get in a small group.  It's one of the BEST ways you can possibly spend your time!
  • Sunday's service ROCKED beginning to end!  Back to TWO SERVICES for the first time in 10 weeks.  So GREAT to have the 9AM crowd again!
  • Biggest attendance of the year so far.  Way to go Crossroads!
  • Children's Center is about 85% complete and looks FANTASTIC!  Great response from everyone serving there and from parents taking their nursery and toddler-age children there.  Getting better every week.
  • Great new signage out front: "Love God - Love Others - Serve the World"!
  • LOVED seeing all our great lobby team volunteers and ushers wearing the awesome new "iServe" t-shirts and badges!  Didn't they look great?  We have one in YOUR size, too!  Just sign up and show up once a month to serve with our awesome guest services team and you'll be sporting the latest in Crossroads-wear! Thank you ALL for demonstrating such team spirit!
  • Week One of GOD, LOVE & SEX was awesome!  Great job by Doug and Rodney (our two unsuspecting victims that dressed up in Romeo garb and read classic poetry) who showed their wives that real men read "How Do I Love Thee"!  Way to go guys!  Hope you enjoy the "free" movie tickets.  You totally earned them!
  • Laughed HARD at the Tim Hawkins video!
  • Heard from MANY people that they were really comitting to dig in to the teaching this month.  I really believe that as folks do, they will see radically positive changes in their marriages!
  • Also heard from many singles and young people that Sundays teaching was a HUGE blessing and a help to them in their pursuit of purity in their relationships!
  • Worship band brought it Sunday.  Totally ROCKED!
  • Did I mention i LOVED being back to two services?
Guys, I have never been so pumped for a series of teaching as I am for our current series GOD, LOVE & SEX.  This is GREAT stuff whether you are married, in a relationship, or single.  There is something for EVERYONE in this series.  I encourage you to INVITE friends, family, co-workers whoever.  Everybody knows somebody who need real practical answers to the questions we all have in our real relationships.  Cant wait to see you all next Sunday.  Have a GREAT week!
