Services at Calvary

Services at Calvary - Even though vaccinations are happening and restrictions are relatively easy for COVID-19, please make safe, smart decisions with respect to mask wear, social distancing, and attendance.

• Not Feeling Well? - Please stay at home if you are not feeling well (and enjoy the service on LiveStream). Continue to practice good hygiene and make use of the hand sanitizer, washing your hands often, and be in prayerful support for those who may be ill.

Church Bulletin - Sermon notes and announcements will be provided via YouVersion / Bible App, as well as a limited number of paper bulletins in the foyer, so if you're reading this, you're already ahead of this one! Please help others be able to take advantage of this service.

Connecting Online

We have a number of activities to stay connected and in community. We would encourage you to take advantage of them as you are able. We know it's not the same as being in person, but we hope these things will help you at least stay connected.

Our Father - Part 2: The Prayer of Surrender
Matthew 6:10
Sources of our Stress:
· Uncontrollable Circumstances.
· Uncooperative People.
· Unexplainable Pain.
Fact: God’s Kingdom is wherever Jesus is King.
Prayer of Surrender:
1) Means letting go of control.
Two Extremes: When our life is out of control.
· We try even harder to control everything.
· We simply give up.
THE SERENITY PRAYER
“God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change,
the courage to change the things I can,
and the wisdom to know the difference.

Living one day at a time,
enjoying one moment at a time
accepting hardship as a pathway to peace
taking as Jesus did, this sinful world as it is,
not as I would have it.

Trusting that You will make all things right
if I surrender to your will
so that I may be reasonably happy in this life,
and supremely happy with You forever in the next. Amen.
Reinhold Niebuhr
Problem: With Contentment is we are always looking for an explanation as to why.
Prayer of Surrender:
2) Means learning to be content.
Key: There is only one thing that works in situations that you cannot change—Acceptance and Contentment.
Prayer of Surrender:
3) Means laying down my plans.
Question: Why do I have so many problems?
Question: What does it mean to lay down my plans?
Prayer of Surrender:
4) Means leaving the future to God.
Question: What area of your life is not surrendered to God?
Key: God will do amazing things when you surrender to Him, and He will restore your life hundred-fold.
Our Vision: Loving God, Loving Others, Serving the World!

Our Mission: "Passionately, through the love of Christ, we will intentionally disciple as we work shoulder to shoulder to reach and serve our community and the world."
