CBSM students and parents,

Its soooo good to be back in town and back on the CBSM saddle! I’m so encouraged to hear how well last week’s worship service went with Pastor Zach and the CBSM Praise Band! I absolutely can’t wait for this Wednesday night with the fun, excitement, worship, and message that God is giving us to grow closer to Christ. See yall then!

NETMA is attached for your viewing pleasure. 2.14.10 (pdf)  Be sure to check out the Reading Plan for this week. Here’s what you need to know for this week…

STORYLINE Wednesday Worship (6:00 – 8:00pm) Tomorrow night we will finish the book of Esther in our series “For the Love.” Trust me, you will not want to miss it. It will be a night where you’ll wish you had brought your friends if you didn’t, and you’ll be glad you did if you did. So work on your friends, get them there with you, and let’s rock the night for Christ!

FRAMEWORK Sunday School (9:15 – 10:15am) This Sunday, we will all meet in the student building at 9:15am for our weekly announcements and then break-up into our small groups and go to the small group rooms.

MINISTRY TEAMS Sunday Evening (6:30 – 7:30pm) There will not be any SMTs this Sunday night because of the Capshaw Baptist Night of Praise from 6:30 – 7:30pm. Some SMTs may meet early. Be sure to check with your SMT leader for times and places of your meetings!
