Calvary Link: Let’s Hang Out Together!

calvary-link-headerI want to encourage you to check out all the opportunities listed below for you to catch up with old friends or meet new friends here at Calvary. While God is certainly at work in our lives--he often works in our lives through people--to keep us encouraged and help us grow! I'm looking forward to hanging out with you this Sunday--not only in worship--but after worship in our church gymnasium. Everyone is welcome to HangTime! I'm looking forward to worshipping with you and opening the Word this Sunday to talk about Jesus. This guy walks on water (literally!)

Again, don't miss all the opportunities below to get connected to the community so that you can stay encouraged in your faith.

For Your Joy--

Lionel
