As we head into the fall, we will begin a new sermon series. This next year, we will be studying the bible’s book of Exodus. Why Exodus, you might ask?
At the beginning of the year, it was announced that Calvary will be starting the process of developing a new strategic plan. So, let me answer a few questions in regards to this plan.
Well, it’s hard to believe but July is here. With July usually comes the hottest days of the year. That is why July is often known as “The Dog Days of Summer.” This expression, in part, means that even the dogs are disparaging the extreme heat and are longing for relief. For us, however, July should be a month of joyful celebration.
For me, June has always been a month of joyous celebration and fun. During my childhood, June was about summer break from school, longer days to play, and baseball. Invariably, all three of these realities merged into baseball. I agree with Yogi Berra who said, “Love is the most important thing in the world, but baseball is pretty good, too.” He also said, “Little League baseball is a very good thing because it keeps the parents off the streets.”
May is a favorite time of year for many. Why so? Great weather to enjoy. Great beauty to behold. Great friends to share it with. And, great optimism for the future. Here are a few popular expressions about May. Join me in reflecting on them and how they might relate to Calvary in May of 2022.
Easter is around the corner! What a great time of the year to invite family, friends, and neighbors to Calvary. Be sure and check out our website to see what is happening at Calvary this Easter. Also, you can find these details later in this newsletter.
