2 WEEKS TO GO UNTIL 2018As you take inventory of your financial giving over the past year, you may want to catch up before December 31st. Remember your faithfulness allow the ministries of CMC to go forward and enable the Gospel of Christ to reach everyone.

CHRISTMAS EVECelebrate the birth of Jesus and sing Christmas Carols...experience the “glow” of candles; a beautiful way to worship on Christmas Eve with family and friends. DON’T FORGET to take your poinsettia home AFTER the service.

CHRISTMAS OFFERINGThis year’s Christmas offering will go to support Operation Christmas Child (aka Shoebox Ministry). Postage costs are estimated at $750. All money collected above that amount will go in its entirety to Whosoever Gospel Mission. Seek the Lord’s guidance in prayer as to your part in support of these ministries.

BOARD OF TRUSTEESIn November the Board of Trustee selected Wilfredo Caban (Willie) to fill the position occupied by Tom Valletto who in October accepted the Youth Pastor position here at Calvary. Please keep Willie, Pastor John and the rest of the Board Members in prayer as we work together in leading the Church and sharing the message of the gospel.
