| Greetings! |
The lobby was full of people again for the first time since June. It was fun to have so many people back as well as the Stout students.
I opened up my new series on Sunday, A Legacy of Faith. I explored what it means to leave a legacy in life and how that relates to our church. Miss it? Download A Legacy of Faith here.
Job Postings - We've never had much turn over in staff but we  have two openings right now. Click on the links below to read the job descriptions. I'm excited to see who God brings us.

2. Worship and Youth Director (full-time)

Husbands...Step Up! - Men, this is the time of year that you suck it up and take the kids for a day so your wife can attend the Beth Moore conference. This is just a little payback for all the times she's watched the kids so you can go play. You can do it! It's good for you. Who knows, it might become a habit : )
College Students...Lunch is on Us! - Pastor Kyle and I would like all the Stout and CVTC students to join us for lunch this Sunday at noon. Hit return and let me know if you'll be there. By the show of hands on Sunday there could be a few of you!
Read all about it - September is "go" time at Cedarbrook. There is so much happening. Please read the articles below and the bulletin on Sunday to make sure you don't miss out!
Send me your vacation pictures - Hit "reply" and send me some of your best summer pictures. I'll show a few on Sunday. I don't have that many yet so I NEED you to do this! Or just give me a link to your Facebook photo album.
Full children's programming starts Sunday. It should be a big day at Cedarbrook.
