Why do the nations conspire and the peoples plot in vain? The kings of the earth rise up and the rulers band together against the Lord and against his anointed, saying, “Let us break their chains and throw off their shackles.” The One enthroned in heaven laughs; the Lord scoffs at them. He rebukes them in his anger and terrifies them in his wrath, saying, “I have installed my king on Zion, my holy mountain.” I will proclaim the Lord’s decree: He said to me, “You are my son; today I have become your father. Ask me, and I will make the nations your inheritance, the ends of the earth your possession. You will break them with a rod of iron; you will dash them to pieces like pottery.” Therefore, you kings, be wise; be warned, you rulers of the earth. Serve the Lord with fear and celebrate his rule with trembling. Kiss his son, or he will be angry and your way will lead to your destruction, for his wrath can flare up in a moment. Blessed are all who take refuge in him.

Cordon Bleu will be served at the Family Dinner from 5:30 to 6:15 p.m. prior to the evening activities on Wednesday. A gluten free option is always available. To ensure we have enough food, we ask everyone to sign up in advance (no later than 9:00 a.m. Wednesday), by noting on a Calvary Connection card, calling the Church Office or by Clicking Here using the QR code. This is always a great time of fellowship before the evening activities begin.
UPDATE FROM THE SAFETY COMMITTEE: We regret to report that we had another theft from a vehicle in our parking lot recently. Please use caution if you are parking your vehicle in the church parking lot overnight, as there is no supervision during these times. We also continue to encourage you to lock your vehicles and keep any items of value out of sight and secured.
Our Daily Bread and Today in the Word are available in the oak rack near the nursery hallway and the spindles in the entryway.

There is a need for volunteers to help clear sidewalks on Sundays before services this winter. We are looking for 12 people,. This would be a once a month commitment if there are enough volunteers.

The Care Closet needs donations of winter coats, hats, gloves and childrens clothing. Please leave clean items in a bag outside the Care Closet in the Chapel hall.
