Opportunities to Serve
Calvary Bible Church’s Children’s Ministry Sunday School (ages 2–5th grade) needs volunteers for July and August. Just one Sunday a month—no teaching required—simply come, care for, and love the children. Without enough help, we won’t be able to offer Sunday School this summer. Please prayerfully consider serving. Please email Hannah Haney for more information.
Join the Lend-a-Hand Ministry and be part of a team that meets short-term needs within our church family. This Deacon led ministry is a great way to serve others in simple but meaningful ways—whether it’s helping with light yard work, tackling small odd-jobs, or being that second set of hands. No ongoing commitment or professional skills are required—just a willing heart and a desire to help. To get involved click here or click to send and email.
Swahili Outreach Event: We will be hosting our second annual outreach for the Swahili Hope Ministry on Saturday, August 2. Volunteers are needed for set up (mid-morning), serving lunch, and then tear down/clean up (early afternoon). If you would like to volunteer or if you have any questions, please contact Russ Smith in the church office.
