Women's Thursday Morning Bible Study will begin January 21 from 9:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. in the Fellowship Center and will run through April 1. We will be going through the book "Choosing Forgiveness," by Nancy Leigh DeMoss. There are no secret formulas for forgiveness, but there are biblical principles that will help us break free from bitterness and pain. Discover specific strategies for putting God's grace and mercy into practice as we study God's Word, pray for one another, and grow in obedience and love. Click here to sign up or call the church office. Registration is now open until next Sunday, January 17.
If you are post-college through age 35 you are cordially invited to join us for NextSteps, meeting at 9:00 a.m. in Room 300! Together we will enjoy community, growth, service, outreach, worship, and prayer in a focused, yet relaxed, interactive and engaging environment. In order to encourage us in our quest for growth in grace and truth, multiple formats will be utilized to address a broad array of topical and biblical studies, issues of shared life experience, and current challenges in our post-Christian culture. Come join us!
Operation Christmas Child Update: We are able to track a few of the boxes that went out from Calvary Bible Church, one of our boxes is blessing a child in Burumdi in South Africa. It is a nation known for political instability and violence. Please continue to pray for the children that will receive the boxes that were sent. Ask God to soften the hearts of these children to the Gospel of Jesus Christ resulting in their salvation and life long commitment to Christ. Pray also for transformed lived in their families and communities. Over 9 million shoeboxes will be delivered with the Gospel message around the world this year.
