Ladies, you are invited to a baby shower for Katie Mellett on Tuesday, September 7th at 7:00 P.M. in the Johnson Chapel.  Please cme and help us celebrate the upcoming arrival of Brandon and Katie's little girl.  Katie is registered at Wal-Mart and Target.

These are available for all families of children ages 4 thru 6th grades who are interested i our Thursday night children's program.  The Master Club program is a great way for your kids to learn God's Word and meets Thursday nights at 6:30 beginning on September 9th.  For more information, please contact the church office.

Those who would be burdened for our country and its drifting away from our Biblical World View are invited to meet on Wednesday evenings after the service.  Pastor Sherman and Pastor Johnson will be leading a "Pray For America" prayer meeting on a weekly basis during this critical time in our nation's history.

Mr. Mellett is looking for men in the church that would be interested to come into his Christian Manhood class to speak and to possibly demonstrate their occupation, a previous occupation, a hobby, or special skill that would be beneficial or interesting for the Christian Manhood boys.  Thank you to all those men who volunteered their time last year to speak to the young men. All those who spoke last year are invited as well to come speak again to the class.  Please see Mr. Mellett or email:  brandon.mellett@fbcrosemount.org

Ladies Only - Tuesday, September 14th.  A visit to the History Center to hear Rae Katherine Eighmey talk about "Food Will Win the War."  This presentation features theatrical readings, evocative photographs and posters, tunes representative of the time and food conversation sample treats.  Cost of the program is free.  We will depart from FBC at 9:30 AM.  Mystery destination for lunch - cost approx. $10.

 I wish to thank Mrs. Nibbe and everyone else involved for putting together such a wonderful shower.  I also wish to thank everyone who was able to attend.  I enjoyed the time of fellowship, and it was a huge blessing to see everyone there.
