Camp
We encourage you and your family to continue to pray for the people of Japan. The recent earthquake and tsunami has killed 10,000 people and many more are missing after what is being called the most expensive disaster ever. You can make a difference by making a donation to International Disaster Emergency Services at www.ides.org or by sending a check to I.D.E.S. (Disaster), P.O. Box 60, Kempton, IN 46049. All of your donation will go to the the field to assist in relief efforts.

How You Can Help Japan’s Earthquake Victims
Youth Group Meets on Tuesdays at SA Campus

“Just One” Challenge November 14
In Matthew 9:37-38 Jesus said, “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.” How many more workers would it take to make a difference? The answer is just one more.
That’s why the presidents of all 33 Christian colleges have joined together to issue the Just One Challenge: will you pray for just one more worker for the harvest field?
On Sunday, November 14, 2010, congregations across the country will join together in Matthew 9:38 prayer. This Just One Sunday is an opportunity for us to obey our Lord’s command to “ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.”
Ask God to show you one person – a potential kingdom worker – for whom you could pray; then pray for that person by name every day. You may want to give your “just one” a word of encouragement or plant in their mind the idea that God might want to call them to ministry. In God’s power, every single kingdom worker can leave a lasting influence.

Backpack Food Program
Update: Please note that we will support the Backpack Food Program all year long
Cedar Ridge Sapulpa Campus is teaming up with the Sapulpa Ministerial Alliance and Caring Community Friends (formerly Sapulpa Community Care) to discreetly provide nutritious, child-friendly, easy-to-prepare food for chronically hungry children to take home over the weekends. In some cases, the only meal a child receives is from their school cafeterias. The Backpack Food Program allows for food to be provided confidentially in backpacks each Friday afternoon to ensure kids have something to eat during the weekend.
Backpack food programs have been shown to increase attendance, decrease behavior problems, improve concentration abilities of students, and improve student academic achievement.
Two ways that you can be involved in this program:
- Make a cash donation: tax-deductible donations can be made to help purchase food items. Checks should be made payable to Cedar Ridge; be sure to write “Backpack Program” in the notation area on your check.
- $4 will fill one backpack each week
- $16 will fill one backpack each week for a month
- $104 will support one child for an entire school year
- Make a food donation: foods must be kid-friendly, shelf stable, easy-to-prepare, and nutritionally sound. Purchase specific items (in bulk) such as individual servings of dry cereal, pudding cups, fruit cups, vienna sausages, beef jerky, juice boxes, etc. Pick up a list of these items near the display in the foyer.
Please join us in this effort to feed hungry kids in our community. For more information, contact Bryan King, Sapulpa Campus Minister.
Donate Online
Every Sunday there is an opportunity to worship God in our services with our tithe. We have recently added a convenient way for you to give at other times. To donate online:
- Go to cedarridgecc.com
- Click on “Give.”
- Then click on the “donate” icon
For assistance or for more information about online giving, please contact Robin Smith, Business Administrator.
New Cedar Ridge “Global Outreach Team”
In the past hour:
1,625 children were forced to live on the streets
1,667 children died from malnutrition or disease
115 children became prostitutes
257 children were orphaned because of HIV/Aids
It gets worse…
2 billion people in the world today have never ever heard of Jesus
We, as a church, believe God wants us to do something about this. On Thursday, October 21, a new era in Cedar Ridge world mission outreach begins. The Global Outreach Team (GO Team) is a group of people who pray for and encourage 19 missionaries and missions organizations that Cedar Ridge partners with throughout the world. We need your help. Together, we can make a difference!
Join us on October 21 from 6:30 to 8:00 p.m. in the Fellowship Hall, BA Campus, for our first GO Team gathering. Our speaker will be Chris DeWelt, Missions Director at Ozark Christian College. We invite you to get involved in a hands-on way to promote missions and to pray and encourage those on the front lines of global outreach.
CRCC’s Youth Ministry “Impacts Africa”
CRCC’s Youth Ministry is actively involved in working with Life In Abundance International whose vision is to “empower [churches in Africa] to serve the poor by training and equipping them …in an effort to meet the practical needs of their neighbors.” 
Our Impact Student Ministry has adopted a community and church in Africa and over $30,000 has been raised for Kingdom work in this small community! Last year, several of our kids and sponsors traveled to Africa and met the “adopted community” first-hand.
Find out more at blog.liaint.org.
If you would like more information about Impact Africa or CRCC’s student ministry, please contact Kyle Rodell, Youth Minister.
