NEWS
Our Annual Congregational Meeting will be held in the Sanctuary tonight at 6:00 p.m. We will vote to affirm the Elder and Deacon nominees and approve the 2022-23 budget and two new Global Partners. The full list of nominees is in today’s bulletin insert and includes those men who are currently serving and have been nominated for an additional term as well as new nominees. There is also an insert introducing the proposed Global Partners. The balcony will be open for high-precaution seating. If you are a member of Calvary Bible Church, please plan to attend. Nursery will be available for infants up to 24 months.
Copies of the Annual Report are available on the table in the lobby. Please take only one per family.
Absentee ballots are available at the Welcome Center. Please note that absentee ballots do not count towards our needed quorum for the meeting.
ESL Plus (English as a Second Language) will begin in September. Staffing for the program is needed. Please prayerfully consider this ministry to teach English, and be an ambassador to our International people in Kalamazoo. Training and materials are provided; you do not need to be bi-lingual. Six teachers, eight helpers and staffing for a nursery program are needed. This is an excellent opportunity to reach the nations right here at home. Please contact Clay VanDussen for questions or to volunteer.
Opportunities to Serve
Children’s Ministry has immediate needs! There are 15 helper slots and 2 game leader slots open in June. Church Membership is not required to serve; these are helper roles; you won’t be teaching. Please call the Church Office or email Hannah Haney.
The Calvary Choir is now accepting new members for the 2022-2023 season. If you are High School age or older and desire to serve the Lord through the choir ministry or would like additional information, please contact Mark Duncan or call the Church Office.
The Choir is welcoming guest singers during the morning services on July 10 and August 21. If you¹d like to get a feel for what the Choir ministry is all about or if you just would like to take this opportunity to sing, we¹d love to have you join us on one or all of these mornings! To participate, please email Mark Duncan or contact the Church Office.
