Growing in Biblical Teaching & Global Missions

11/1/23 | The Weekly | by Eric Wakeling

    Dear Calvary Family,

    The two historical, core pillars of Calvary Church are biblical teaching and global missions. Those were two of the foundations of our church and continue to be primary ways we seek to make and grow disciples of Jesus Christ - people who love and follow Jesus.

    We have two Midweek Classes starting tonight, November 1, at 7:00pm that will help you grow in these two areas:

    How to Read the Bible - Fellowship Hall
    Parenting with a Global Vision     - Worship Center Lobby

    Being able to read and understand God’s Word as well as being able to raise children who care about a world that is lost and in need of the love and grace of Jesus are important skills to develop in your journey as a disciple. And, these are both so much more than just learning information. These are ways that you can share in relational discipleship - learning to love like Jesus by giving away what you’ve received.

    Please join us tonight for one of these classes to continue your process of growth. We also have ministries happening tonight for kids in Nursery up through High School. Wednesday nights also include Celebrate Recovery, a Men’s Bible Study, Hispanic Prayer Night and ESL Classes. Find out more about midweek at Calvary at CalvaryLife.org/Midweek.

    Last night was an incredible night of fun while serving our community and sharing the love and light of Jesus through Light the Night! We saw thousands of people having a safe and joyous night with many stepping foot on a church property for the first time in their lives. Thank you so much to all who helped bless our neighbors with your time, your candy, your cakes and your financial giving to help make this happen.

    You can help us serve our community and be a light for the gospel at our Thanksgiving Around the World lunch on Saturday, November 18 at noon. Join us in welcoming our new Afghan neighbors with a delicious meal filled with biblical hospitality. Whether you are a host family, setting up, greeting, serving food or cleaning up, you are invited to bless our Afghan friends this Thanksgiving. Interested in getting involved? Come learn more at a volunteer training meeting on Sunday, November 12 from 10:30-11:00 am and sign up today at CalvaryLife.org/World.

    May the Lord bless you and keep you,
    Eric Wakeling
