Cross View’s Minnesota Foodshare drive to benefit our outreach partner VEAP is now underway and will continue through April 4. All nonperishable food items as well as nonfood personal hygiene items (shampoo, bath tissue, dish soap, etc.) are welcome. A dropoff point is provided in the lobby. If you would rather take advantage of VEAP’S superior purchasing power, you may place a check made out to “Cross View” in the offering plate with “VEAP Food Drive” on the memo line. The need is great because of the continuing weak economy. Here is an opportunity to share your good fortune with your needy neighbors.

Final Days and VEAP: March Missions of the Month |
Final Days of Jesus is a live, drive-through presentation that depicts Jesus’ final week in nine scenes beginning with Palm Sunday and ending with the open tomb. Five to fifteen actors in full costume are needed per scene. Our guests are given a CD or cassette to narrate each scene they drive up to and to help move them along. The blessing for all is that by the time they finish, they have heard the full gospel message and you can be a part of that! This is an excellent opportunity to invite the non-churched in your workplace or neighborhood. It is also a great chance for the whole family to volunteer and participate together in spreading the good news of Christ’s Love. Plan to join the fun on March 28th. We need you!

2010 Christian Art Festival |
|
The 2010 Cross View Christian Art Festival runs April 24-May 16. From the annunciation to His Second coming, this year’s featured exhibit, "Seeing the Savior: Images from the Life of Christ," includes 35 insightful and colorful interpretations of the birth, ministry, passion, ascension and return of the Lord, masterfully portrayed by 13 artists from a variety of artistic and ethnic backgrounds. These works suggest the variety of approaches artists employ to make visible the gospels’ narratives and messages. Some of the works on display will be immediately comprehensible while others may be more difficult to understand. Together they offer testament to the rich visual history of the Christian Story which continues uninterrupted to this day.
