Welcome to Calvary
August 24, 2014Eleventh Sunday After Pentecost
"And I also say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it. "And I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.“ Matthew 13:18-20
We welcome Pastor Catrina Hawkins-Bowles to Calvary, who leads worship for us this morning and brings us God’s Word.
Pastor Janet is on vacation through August 24. Should you have a need or an emergency, please call the Visitation Team Chair, Mary Webb, at 775-4594. Additional Team members are Kay Sykes (804-7630) and Brenda Dardinger (772-6342).

Season of Thanks
During the season of Pentecost, Calvary will be giving thanks for its past; its present; its future. We will be thanking groups and individuals and most of all God for the blessings bestowed on Calvary Evangelical Lutheran Church. We are calling this a Season of Thanks!
During this Season of Thanks each of us, daily, need to remember things and people for which and whom we are thankful. Even on those days when everything seems to be falling apart… we can be thankful that God is there to catch us and protect us …. just like God always does!

Elections for council will be October 19. The terms of Craig Solle, Jean Michelson, Janis Lane and Charlotte Spahr are ending. Would you be interested in running for council? Council meets the 3rd Tuesday of every month at 7pm. If you think you would be interested or want more information please contact Craig Solle, Jim Segelhorst or Jean Michelson.

Church Council Elections
StewardshipA simple but profound way to be a good steward of God's gift of time is to attend Church regularly and to establish a good prayer life. Even those who may feel they don't have the means to contribute in any other way can still pray for the needs of the Church, the world, their community and individual members of the community.
We need not excel at something to be talented. Instead of asking "Will you volunteer?" ask "How will you use your gifts to serve others?" A volunteer can say yes or no, but as baptized disciples/followers of Jesus Christ, we are called to use our gifts to serve others and build up the kingdom of God. We are his hands and feet, eyes and ears, mind and heart in the world.
Ushers are needed to assist with the 8:15AM Service during the month of September. If you are available to volunteer in this way, please contact Ken Tomko at #740-775-6778 Thank you!
USHERS ARE NEEDED FOR THE 8:15AM SERVICE IN SEPTEMBER!

The Kitchen Team has an Appliance Wish List of some updated appliances for church events and celebrations, including additional roasters ($30-$40) and a larger basement refrigerator (26-28 cubic feet of storage space, $2000-$3000). These appliances would belong to Calvary and be for Church use for gatherings here at Calvary (Oktoberfest, holidays, showers, birthdays, funerals, etc.). These new appliances would provide additional cooking and storage space for our church functions. If you would like contribute to any of these wishes, contact Brenda Segelhorst (#775-5115), or place your donation in the Free Will Offering and label your envelope “Appliance”. Thank you!
