From Pastor Joe October 2016

Family Ministry Activities

We have some very exciting ministries coming up that all of our CBC family can participate in. Some

of the specific details are found inside our newsletter.

Trunk or Treat – Monday, October 31st

, 6:00-8:00 p.m.

See Kristi’s page for details. This is going to be a wonderful opportunity to meet and interact with

some of our neighbors and to be the “light” of Christ in our community. There is a way for the entire

CBC family to participate, from decorating a vehicle, to registering guests, to being a smiling greeter.

Upward Basketball

While our league play does not begin until January, player sign-ups and volunteer registration begins

in October. Sports evangelism (what Upward is all about) may be the most effective way to reach

families in our community. We have a need for coaches, referees, set-up help, concessions workers,

registration help, prayer support, and offering devotions on game days. Again, there is an

opportunity for every member to be involved at some level in this tremendous community outreach.

See Justin to volunteer and/or to find out where you could be plugged in.

Operation Christmas Child – Dedication Day, November 6th

We will be partnering with thousands of other churches this year by preparing Christmas boxes for

children around the world. This is a great way to celebrate the Thanksgiving and Christmas season by

giving to a child this Christmas. You will be hearing more about this ministry and how easy it is for

you to get involved. We will have brochures at the Connection Center which will tell you exactly how

to pack your shoe box. A limited number of boxes will also be available. We will bring our boxes on

Sunday, November 6th

and dedicate them to the Lord.

TBBA Annual Meeting, FBC Temple Terrace, Monday, October 24th

Because of your generosity, CBC ranks 5th

out of 147 churches in giving through the Tampa Bay

Baptist Association. Come see and hear about all the exciting things that God is doing in the Tampa

Bay area to grow the kingdom that you are a part of. Dinner will be served at 5:00 p.m. and the

meeting will be at 6:45 p.m. Let us know at the church office if you would like to attend the dinner.

No reservation is required for the meeting. CBC is able to send ten (10) “Voting” members and if you

would like to be considered a “Messenger,” please let us know at the church office as we have

some openings.

Orchestra family: Sylvia Russell (choir & orchestra), Lilly Brichner (choir), Kaitlyn Swindle (choir),

Richard Harrison (orchestra), and David Kim (choir).

Do your kids have a place

to plug-in and serve? If not, our Children’s Music and Missions programs

are a great place to start.

for Pre-school & 1st-5th grades are

Wednesday evenings at 6:00pm.

The Fall season has begun but it is never too late to

dive in and be a part of the exciting things that God

is doing through our Children’s choirs!

Upward is getting ready to start.

Sign-ups will begin the end of October. The early registration will

end November 18. So get your forms in early. If you have not

volunteered in the past, I would encourage you to pray about how

you might be able to volunteer this year. It is a great opportunity to

serve and be a blessing to those who come play Upward at our church.
