Message from Pastor Debbie
Worship at Calvary (Services through May 31 will be available online)
May 31st is Pentecost Sunday!
From Pastor Debbie:
Sunday, May 24th is our final day for looking at our Easter theme, Risen indeed. However, our Easter new life is without end. May Pentecost give us the energy and fire that we need to take new life to another level.
This Sunday, we hear Jesus praying for his disciples, that they may be one, as he and the Father are one. You and I are called to leave behind division and separateness and to seek deeds of peace in our church and the world.
Join me in this well-known prayer:
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love; where there is injury, pardon; where there is discord, union; where there is doubt, faith; where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light; where there is sadness, joy.
Grant that we may be not so much seek to be consoled as to console; to be understand as to understand; to be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive; it is in pardoning that we are pardoned; and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
~Attributed to St. Francis of Assisi
May 31st is Pentecost Sunday!
Calvary Cares - Special Notice
May 31st is Pentecost Sunday!
As part of this year’s Pentecost celebration, we will add in virtual coffee fellowship at 8am and 11am by Zoom. Join us before or after worship to catch up with your church family and to talk about how the Spirit is moving in this time of pandemic to make us new and prepared to share the Gospel.
Our conversation starters are:
1. What is the best thing that has happened to you in a church?
2. How has the stay at home order prompted you to adapt a new perspective or practice that you would like to continue when normal activities resume?
3. Like those on Pentecost, the Spirit is upon us and empowering us to be the church today. How do you feel led by the Spirit to be his church today? Where is the fire of the Spirit within you?
4. What most excites you and scares you about re-gathering in person for growing in compassionate relationships, faith, service, and generosity through Christ?
See you for coffee!

Calvary's Care and Concern Ministry is a confidential ministry that reaches out to support our members in a variety of ways. The most apparent ones are that we offer cards, calls, visits and meals to members following hospitalizations, deaths in the family, job losses, etc. We also provide transportation to doctor visits and pick up groceries or medicines when needed.
There is a Calvary Cares Fund that Pastor Debbie oversees to not only ensure confidentiality but also to ensure good stewardship of the resources we do have that can be used to help members who are experiencing unexpected needs during this pandemic.
Help, in a variety of ways, has been ongoing behind the scenes. Pastor Debbie has received donations from members to this fund, which she, in turn, has used to help others.
If you would like to help members of our congregation in this time of need, the best way is to make a donation to the Calvary Cares Fund, which can be accomplished by designating your gift on your offering envelope or check. Your gift and those who receive support will remain confidential.
