Prayer, Training & Go Groups

 

Jim West


Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, and spend a year there and engage in business and make a profit.” Yet you do not know what your life will be like tomorrow. You are just a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away. Instead, you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we will live and also do this or that.” But as it is, you boast in your arrogance; all such boasting is evil. Therefore, to one who knows the right thing to do and does not do it, to him it is sin.

James 4:13-17

 Sign up today for the Fall Women’s Disciple-Making Bible Studies in the Fellowship Center, on-line by visiting the Women’s Ministry page. Registrations close on Monday, August 29.

 Join us November 4-6 as Dr. Jamie Hudson Taylor IV challenges us from the Word. Throughout the Global Impact weekend events have been scheduled to spotlight the Great Commission. More information will be forthcoming about the activities Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Pray for hearts to be open to new opportunities the Lord has for each of us in reaching the Nations with the Gospel.

 Our Operation Christmas Child shoeboxes for this season have arrived and may be picked up in the library if you would like to get an early start on packing collected items. Shipping costs are now $10 per box. Please check here for suggestions on items to pack.

Are you missing something? We have a lost and found area just outside Reception Room A, but we keep some items (keys and eye glasses, for example) in the Church Office. Several items have been turned in recently. Stop by any time during regular office hours to inquire.   


Opportunities to Serve

Children’s Ministry has immediate needs! For next week Sunday, August 14, there is a need for 15 Helpers. 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 in the Church Office or click here to email.

 The Choir is welcoming guest singers during the morning service on 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. To participate, please email Mark Duncan or contact the Church Office.

Ministry Focus

Global Impact Weekend is about mobilizing the congregation to make disciples locally and globally. Each year, we dedicate the first weekend of November to highlighting what the Lord is doing in and through HIS body, the church. Guest speakers will teach, encourage, equip, and challenge us to be involved in proclaiming Christ to all peoples.


Elder Focus

Jeff Whitaker was saved in 1970 and began attending Calvary in 1972. He is married to Linda, and they have two grown children: Ryan and Eric. Jeff is our Senior Associate and Outreach Pastor and has served as an Elder, Teacher and Global Partner.
