Camp Boggy Creek (CBC) Info Session after Bible Study at 10:15pm for people of ALL AGES!!!
Josh will show a short 10 min CBC Volunteer Info Video and pass out paper applications for those interested in doing it SPRING semester. I'll answer any questions and help you along with the application process. If you fill in your application now, we can reserve a weekend at CBC as a group to volunteer together. For more info, see http://www.boggycreek.org
Thanks!!

*** Directory and Year Book ***
This year, we're doing something a little bit different with the
directory. The attached pdf file is this year's directory and it
contains contact information for the members of Crossroads.
Download it, print it and use it!

****Please take the time to check and make sure that your
information is correct in the directory because this same
information will be reprinted in the yearbooks and we want it to
be correct! And if you're NOT ON IT, please tell Kristina too.
E-mail Kristina at kchenyin@ufl.edu if there are any
changes that need to be made. Also, if you are interested in
helping out with the yearbook(see below), please see Kristina as well.

At the end of the year, we are going to have a Crossroads
yearbook (yippee!) that will have more detailed information on
everyone (birthday, hometown, picture) as well as a space next
to each person for them to write you a personal message. It will
also have pictures of various Crossroads events throughout the
year. The yearbooks will be ready before the spring banquet, and
they are just another way for us to remember this past year that
God has blessed us with this fellowship.

****Remember, please email Kristina RIGHT NOW at kchenyin@ufl.edu if you need to correct your contact info or if you want to be added on.

Thanks!!!


*** Winter Banquet ***
This year, the Crossroads Winter Banquet will be held on THURSDAY,
December 6, 2007 at 6:30pm at the Gainesville Chinese Christian
Church. The theme is going to be "Winter Wonderland", so try to
make use of the colors white, gold, and silver. Also, since no
senior will be graduating this semester, the banquet will be a
time to fellowship with one another and celebrate how God has been
working with Crossroads this past year.

The food will be served potluck style, with each class providing
different types of food.
POTLUCK:
-freshmen: drinks
-sophomores: desserts/appetizers
-juniors: meals
-seniors/grads/working: meals

The winter banquet is less than two weeks away and we need A LOT of
help to make it happen. So if you're interested in helping out,
please let me know as soon as possible! Here is a list of the
positions and the spots that need to be filled.

-PICTURE SLIDE SHOW: Amy Chow
**If you have any pictures from any event of Crossroads from the
past year, please submit them to Amy!! ( ames411@ufl.edu)
-SUPERLATIVES: Danielle Chiu

**We still need people to fill up the following positions. If you
would like to help out, please e-mail me. (ktuazon@ufl.edu)
-GAMES:
-DECORATIONS:
-GIFTS/PRIZES:

Also, this year we will have a portion where YOU can entertain us
with your musical talents (i.e. playing a song..), or any talent
for that matter. We will have a sign-up sheet during this
Friday's Bible Study so if you're interested, you may sign up.

This year we will also be rewarding superlatives, but we need YOUR
help. What I need YOU guys to do is come up with some creative
superlative titles (i.e. "most likely to...") and send them to
Danielle Chiu ( dchiu87@ufl.edu). She will choose the most
creative titles and we will do the voting during this Friday's
Bible Study. The superlative titles can be gender-specific too.
The person who gets mentioned most for a specific title will win
that superlative and be rewarded during the banquet. So please
send Danielle any creative ideas you have for a superlative BEFORE
FRIDAY!! Thanks ~~

This week we've got a lot of little projects up for YOUR consideration, and I know you're SOOO excited! yeee! :-)
If you want to help, PLEASE contact Dan ASAP ( wooguay@gmail.com or wooguay@ufl.edu) and specify which project you'd like to help with.

We have (drumroll...)
1. A cleaning project in need of 2-3 helpers
2. A cleaning project in need of 4-5 helpers
3. A 10-person painting job
4. A 10-15-person ramp build (it's a big one!! 36 feet!)
5. A CCF nursing home visit for as many people as would like to come

Like I said, e-mail Dan ASAP ( wooguay@gmail.com or wooguay@ufl.edu) so he knows which projects to schedule for the lovely people at Christians Concerned for the Community (a.k.a CCC--in case you didn't know, that's the group that plans all these cleanings and ramp builds for us).

So pray, search your heart and decide which project's good for you. Thanks so much everybody!!
Lindsey

Saturday outreach event !!

Hey Everybody!
Thanks to everyone who came out Saturday for the wheelchair ramp build...I'm sure you're not gonna forget it anytime soon, hehehe... :-)

Anyways, this Saturday we're going to have another cleaning/wheelchair ramp build. We'll need about 5 for the cleaning and 10-12 for the build, to be on the safe side. For those who came last week, Dan said this build should be a lot easier. So if you're interested in showing off your crazy cleaning/sawing/hammering/digging skills, PLEASE contact me or Dan as soon as you can.

I think we'll be heading out for the build around 9-ish...I'll have a definite time on Friday, but that should be close. It's a little early, but I PROMISE you from the bottom of my heart that serving your neighbors in Christ is definitely better than sleeping in.

And besides, you can sleep in on Monday. ;-)

Hope to see you Saturday!!
~Lindsey
