Ladies, mark your calendar and reserve Thursday, April 14, for our annual Springfling luncheon. This year we are delighted to welcome special guest Sally Lloyd-Jones, a British-born writer of wonderful children's books, most notably The Jesus Storybook Bible, which has sold well over 100,000 copies and shows better than many theological texts how everything in the Bible points to Christ. Watch for more details in the coming weeks.

Sips n' Strokes for the Ladies!

The guys are going shooting, so the girls are going to have some fun of our own!  Ladies, join us for a leisurely afternoon of painting at Sips n' Strokes on Hwy 280.  To see the cute flower painting scheduled for that day, click on the website (https://www.sipsnstrokes.com/calendar.aspx?FacilityUID=al001) .  For those that can, we'll meet for lunch at 12:00 at Edgar's Bakery in the Colonade and then head over to Sips n' Strokes.  Please feel free to invite friends!

*It's best if we make reservations ahead of time on the website!!  So please go ahead and make your reservation as soon as you can by clicking on the painting and then clicking "register now"!  If you have any questions, contact Anna or Amanda by e-mailing covpres.crosspointe@gmail.com.

Guys' Sporting Clay Trip

On Saturday March 12 we are going to get a group of guys together and go down to Tannehill Sporting Clays for the day.  We will probably grab some lunch and then drive to Tannehill (between Bham and Tuscaloosa) for the afternoon.  The facility has a sporting clays course, 5 stand, and a pistol range which should allow everyone to shoot as much as they want for $10-30.  We will be back in town by late afternoon/early evening.
I hope everyone will be able to come and feel free to invite any of your friends (whether they have been to Crosspointe or not). It should be a great time, even if you are not a hunter or shooter.  Please let me know at church, by e-mail, or by phone if you can make it so i can get an idea of how many we will have.  I will make an announcement in Sunday School the next couple of weeks and will have more detailed plans as I get an idea for the size of the group.  For more information, contact Kent or email Lee at covpres.crosspointe@gmail.com.
