Bible College Tuition Assistance Offering August 1
For the past several years, the membership of Cedar Ridge has shared in supporting our young people who have elected to seek Bible college education and training. Our Bible College Tuition Assistance program benefits those students who are seeking full time Christian service.
Each semester, eligible students receive a pre-determined amount from the Bible College Tuition Assistance Fund based on the number of credit hours they have successfully completed. The fund is replenished by a special offering taken once each year. To date, five of our young people have applied for assistance for the 2010 Fall semester. They are Matthew Guinn, Michael Shahan, Jenni Huggard, Jacob Long, and Bryant Pittman.
Please join with the Bible College Tuition Assistance committee in supporting the future of our young people. A specially marked envelope will be available in the Sunday Morning Worship Service bulletin on August 1. If you have questions, please contact Bob King.
If you are a student interested in pursuing a Bible College education, please contact Kyle Rodell for information and a list of Bible colleges approved for the tuition assistance program.

Service Opportunity
Did you know that Oklahoma ranks 4th in the US in the number of hungry families? Did you know that one in five children in Eastern Oklahoma are in danger of going to bed each night hungry? Organizations like Community Food Bank of Eastern Oklahoma are helping to combat this hunger crisis in our state.
You may have read in a Tulsa World article (June 20th issue) that the Community Food Bank of Eastern Oklahoma recently received a 60 semi-truck shipment of food made possible by a federal grant. The Food Bank currently needs volunteers to help box the food into 58,000 boxes. These boxes will provide food to 58,000 hungry families in a 24 county region in Eastern Oklahoma. If the food is not distributed by September 30, the Food Bank will have to pay for the transportation costs that are now covered by the grant.
This would be a great opportunity for your Journey Group to go and serve this summer. If you, your family, or a group you are a part of would like to help meet this challenge at the Food Bank, call John Sanders at 585-2800, ext. 145, or e-mail jsanders@cfbeo.org to get more information on when you can volunteer. Volunteer opportunities are available Monday through Saturday for people 12 years and older.

Fill a Bottle – Save a Life!
The MEND Pregnancy Resource Center is one of the areas supported by CRCC’s Women’s Minis’tree. MEND is a private, non-profit, life affirming organization whose purpose is to help women find and implement positive, loving solutions for unplanned pregnancies. This ministry encourages women to choose life by offering support and assistance during these times of crisis.
Beginning Sunday, June 13, we’ll begin the “Fill a Bottle – Save a Life” drive. Empty baby bottles will be available at both entrances to the BA Campus Worship Center. Pick up a bottle (or two or more!), take them home, and fill with your loose change. All the proceeds from this event will be used to provide a free ultrasound to women who are considering abortion.
Once the bottles have been filled, please drop them off at the Welcome Center. Any checks collected should be made payable to MEND. Please have your bottles turned in no later than July 25th.
For more information, please contact Nancy Adams or Robin Smith.
