Prayer, Training & Go Groups
When the Lord has washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion and purged the bloodshed of Jerusalem from her midst, by the spirit of judgment and the spirit of burning, then the Lord will create over the whole area of Mount Zion and over her assemblies a cloud by day, even smoke, and the brightness of a flaming fire by night; for over all the glory will be a canopy. There will be a shelter to give shade from the heat by day, and refuge and protection from the storm and the rain.
Isaiah 4:4-6

We understand the command to make disciples. Jim West preached on 1/1/23 about our call to the ministry of reconciliation. If you have a felt measure of conviction about sharing your faith more, the Go Groups are a great place to strengthen one another and encourage one another to that end. Join us for our Sunday evening services at 6:00 p.m. followed by our Go Groups from 6:45 p.m. - 7:15p.m.. We would love to plug you into one of these groups to encourage you in that desire.

Opportunities to Serve
Children’s Ministry is still looking for volunteers to minister to the Children of Calvary Bible Church! Nursery is in need of 13 adult volunteers (8 on Sunday mornings, 1 on Sunday nights and 4 on Wednesday nights). Our Sunday School Classes still need 4 adult volunteers (1 Teacher and 4 Helpers). These classes and nurseries cannot open without the volunteers needed to staff them. Please consider serving, twice a month or even once a month. Anything is a blessing. For more information contact Hannah Haney, or call the Church Office.
GriefShare is looking for a person or couple to take over as lead facilitator for this program. A new group will be starting February 6 and attending that would be great preparation for this position. Requirements are that you be a member of Calvary Bible Church, have experienced the death of a loved one, and have a heart to minister to those grieving a loss. For more information contact Donna Steinke for more information.
