BELL RINGERS: The Salvation Army is looking for volunteer bell ringers from the local churches for Saturday December 15. They have designated that Local Church Day. You can ring for as long or as short a time as you like in 1 hour increments. They welcome musicians and singers as well. If you are interested in ringing please see Pastor Brian.

TLC SCHOLARSHIP: The Crossover is starting a scholarship this year for a TLC graduate to attend Lakeland College. We hope to collect $4000 by April. We currently have collected a little over $1500.

NURSING HOME WORSHIP: On the 1st and 4th Sundays at 2PM, The Crossover is providing a worship service at Douglas Nursing Home, west on Dewitt, across from the Southern Baptist Church. If you would be willing to help, let Tom Schuck or Brian Miller know. We need people who can smile and shake hands. That makes all the difference for the residents.

FREE HOME REPAIR: Next summer, June 22-28, 2008, a Christian youth workcamp is coming to Mattoon and will repair homes at no cost to the owner. If you own your own home or know someone who does and need repairs, please fill out an application on the back table.
