This Sunday at 11:00 a.m. Calvary’s Worship Service will include a celebration of the Second Sunday in Advent.
We hope you will join us for this joyous celebration in anticipation of the fulfillment of God’s loving promise.
Worship Service begins at 11:00 a.m.
The Rev. David J. Hanna will deliver the sermon Heading Home.
Our faith is about going home. I want to invite us during this Advent season to understand that Advent is more than preparing for the baby to be born in Bethlehem. It is important to remember what God did in that moment, but it is in our memory, which means it’s behind us. Advent invites us to live toward what is ahead of us.
The Chancel Choir will lead the music.
Following the service, everyone is invited to gather in the Chalice Room next to the Sanctuary for refreshments and fellowship.
Education Programs begin at 9:30 a.m.
