We also encourage you to review your "My Giving" page on the Church Center app so you can clearly see your giving to date and manage your recurring donations.

If you have any questions about giving options or need assistance understanding tax implications, please call the church office—we’re happy to help. Thank you for partnering with us.

KOINONIA DINNER FELLOWSHIPS - Throughout January
Koinonia is the Greek word for "fellowship."  Calvary provides Koinonia dinners every other month, which allows for opportunities to get to know others in our church.  It’s not a Bible study or a long-term commitment. There are several dates to choose from and different hosts for each month.  The hosts plan a meal and ask each participant to bring a part of the meal. These are fun nights of fellowship and sharing a meal together!

INTENTIONAL PARENTING: RAISING PASSIONATE JESUS FOLLOWERS - Beginning January 7th
Parents—you have a great calling: discipling and raising your children for Jesus. Join us starting Wednesday January 7th at 6:30 PM for this 9-week series where we will learn and engage in discussion on topics like creating a heart of obedience, secrets for navigating the teenage years, a tool called the box, and many more biblical and practical tools. The cost is $10 per person. Online registration is required. Please register HERE.

To make this series fully accessible for parents, we are asking for other people to help serve in childcare for these 9 Wednesdays. Parents are deeply investing in this series—so let’s remove the barrier of childcare so they can attend without worry. We all have a responsibility to help raise up the children in our congregation together and helping with childcare is one of the most tangible ways to support families, build community, and live out our faith in service. If you can help, please sign up HERE or call the church office.

BAPTISM SERVICE - January 11th

MINISTRY FAIR - FIND YOUR PLACE TO SERVE - January 11th
