Let's Go Camping

Remember that the weekend of September 10-12, 2010 will be our church camping trip for this year. It will be held at Shenango Valley RV Park. Everyone is invited to join us. If you are planning to participate, you must make your own campsite reservation. Please call Shenango Valley RV Park to reserve your spot soon. Be sure they know you are with Crossroads as they have us in a designated area.

Things will kick off Friday with a Fire Circle Sing-a-long at 8:00 pm. Bring your talents and snacks.

Saturday will start with a pancake breakfast at 8:30 am followed by a Bible Study led by Pastor Todd Jaussen at 10:30 am.

At 5:00 pm on Saturday will be the pot luck supper. Even non-campers are encouraged to attend this event. After a time of special music at 7:00 pm, Divine Delay will be in concert at 7:30 pm.

A church service will be held at the campground on Sunday at 9:00 am with Gary Meikle speaking. After the noon pot luck lunch, there will be a planning meeting for next year's weekend followed by a prayer circle to conclude the adventure.

Shoebox Countdown Event

On Saturday September 18, 2010 at 6:00 pm, Greenville Alliance Church invites you to come and hear Operation Christmas Child’s National Spokesperson, Lejla Allison, share her amazing testimony of how a shoe box changed her life in 1993 while growing up in war-torn Bosnia.

“I truly felt blessed,” Lejla said. “I knew that God had answered my prayers. I was so over-whelmed I started to cry. But these were not tears I was used to. This time they were tears of joy. This time I knew it was worthwhile to keep on living. I pray that every one of these boys and girls will know that God loves them the same way. I knew He loved me, because He gave His greatest gift, His only son.”
