The Apostle Paul thanked God in 1 Timothy 1:12 because God gave him the privilege of being in the ministry. What an exciting privilege to be in the ministry! Serving the Lord, through the Local New Testament Church is a wonderful thing, and here at Calvary we count it an honor to serve. In order to give you a small taste of what we do on a weekly, monthly, and even annual basis, below you'll find a number of ways that most of our members are involved in the work of the ministry. We hope that this will inspire you to come and see what's going on at Calvary, so that you too can join us in the great work of serving Christ in the ministry!
ANNUAL EVENTS
Every year we host a Winter and Summer Revival with a guest preacher and special music. Annual events like our Baby Dedication, Sweetheart Sunday, Mother-Daughter Luncheon, Missions Conference, Thanksgiving Dinner and Victory Vision help to encourage the community and our congregation. SEMI-ANNUAL OR MONTHLY EVENTS
Everyone looks forward to the All Night Prayer Meetings and Church Wide Fasts. How could we leave off mentioning the Summer Singing & Praising God Services or the Summer Socials. Nobody wants to miss the Open House Sundays or the Monthly Soulwinning Blitz. Throw in a regularly scheduled Dinner on the Grounds or Pot Luck fellowship and there's always something going on around this place! KITCHEN CREWS
It seems that there's always something cooking here at Calvary. Whether it's for an annual event or surprise birthday celebration, the families involved in our kitchen crews are ready to whip up something tasty to eat. You might think it's dangerous to get so many cooks into one kitchen, but we make it work, and with plenty of events that require a meal, everyone gets their turn at the stove. NURSERY
Don't you just love those little chubby cheeks! Some ladies just can't get enough of the little ones; and boy aren't we glad that they aren't being a distraction in the main service. Every service skilled workers serve by caring for our babies, and with a growing church that means there's plenty of babies that need to be cared for. We would love to have your help with these bundles of joy. OUTREACH & EVANGELISM
Weekly times of visitation and personal evangelism are an important part of our church. Christ has commanded us to GO, and if we want to be obedient to the commands of Christ we better get busy going. There's always an opportunity to follow up on a first time visitor, or encourage someone that's been sick or out of services recently. How about the hospital or nursing home? Don't forget our regularly scheduled soul winning blitzes and the need for visiting the riders of our bus routes. Well, you get the idea, there's a lot to do in this area and we would love your help! MUSIC MINISTRY
Music is an important part of our spiritual lives, and so many have been gifted with musical ability. Sunday services provide us with plenty of opportunity to participate in special music. As the church grows, so grows our resources for people who could participate in groups, choirs, and special productions that include music. So if you want to make a joyful noise unto the Lord, then this is the place for you! |
BUS MINISTRY
Every week we send buses into the community to pick people up for church services. Each of our bus drivers and bus workers enjoy going out into the highways and hedges in order to bring them in. The bus ministry is a wonderful way to impact our community for Christ CLEANING CREWS
If cleanliness is next to Godliness, then the many families that help keep our facilities clean on a weekly basis are a God-send. With a constantly growing church the need for many hands to make light work is a necessity. Praise the Lord for everyone that does their part pitching in this ministry. KIDS 4 TRUTH
Our Wednesday night children's program wouldn't be possible without the dedicated workers that serve faithfully during the school year. The scripture that our kiddos learn is astounding and the doctrine that they are being equipped with is amazing! It's always a blessing to see the smiling faces...on the kids and the workers! SUNDAY SCHOOL AND CHILDRENS CHURCH
Every Sunday morning our children attend age appropriate Sunday School classes and church services geared just to their spiritual needs. The workers who serve in these area are on the front lines of the spiritual battlefield. Studying, praying, preparing, and teaching every single week is no small task, and having the help necessary to run one of the classes is important. So come on down, and get involved in training the next generation for Jesus. LADIES MEETINGS
Almost every other month a meeting is hosted in the home of one our ladies. What a great way to spend time encouraging each other in the Lord and getting to know one another that much better. Of course there's always snacks and refreshments, but most of all, we look forward to the Devotional and prayer time. |

MISSIONS WORK
