ANNOUNCEMENTS
- DON'T FORGET: Our Christmas Toy & Decoration Exchange is going on tomorrow, so gather up anything that you'd like to pass along to another family!
- In light of recent events, Crossroads is making security changes and will be locking the childcare hall doors during our meetings. Previously they were closed but now will be locked. This is a good thing to protect our kids! If you arrive to MOPS late or need to pick up early, please come to back corner table near the brunch line for coordinator Kara, Crossroads staff member Cindy, or MOPS Kids Coordinator Lauren (in Lacinda's Small Group) to open for you.
