Weekly Update and Bulletin 11/21/21
Hi Calvary!
I hope that this email finds you all well! I am looking forward to gathering as a church family on Sunday at 9:30am! This Sunday we will be exploring how to value others above ourselves as Jason Pierce teaches on Philippians 2:1-18 as well as celebrating our local partners by hearing stories of how they are impacting the lives of those around them. After the service, join us for Adult Sunday School where we will learn what it looks like to love God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength, and love others as yourself.
Be sure to also join us for the 2nd Sunday Potluck following Sunday School. This was easily one of the highlights of October for me and I can’t wait for Sunday! Bring a dish to share as we will eat some incredible food and enjoy community with each other. Let us know what you are bringing by signing up here. I will be bringing some brownies, so make sure to be ready for that! Though I wouldn’t put too much trust in my baking skills.
See you Sunday!
