Christian Yoga at Calvary Memorial

Dear Calvary Memorial,

Our Lenten journey exploring the spiritual connection to the practice of Yoga resulted in wonderful community building as we welcomed church members, friends, neighbors and Jazzercise participants each Tuesday evening.

We would like to continue experiencing the power of prayer and yoga in a second 5 week session beginning May 2nd.

We need to have 15 people registered and prepaid by April 29th to move forward with this wonderful program.

CALVARY KIDZ

Jesus shares his peace with us
and asks us to share it with others. The children learned this week to say “Peace Be With You” in sign language. We also played a “believe it or not” game. Like Doubting Thomas, they weren’t always sure what to believe. They did all agree that Jesus is alive in us even if we cannot see him!

Next Week: The Road to Emmaus
“Do I Know You?”

CONFIRMATION

Confirmation class will be held after church on Sunday. We are working on our personal statements of faith. Remember to bring your notebooks to class.

The Messenger
God is still speaking….

April 9 – April 15, 2012

Dear Calvary Memorial,

The Resurrection began as Jesus’ breath disappeared into the air. It happened in the dark without any witnesses. It happened when the Father bent over the Son and breathed new life into him.

Easter began for Mary Magdalene when Jesus called her name in the garden and she recognized him. Easter began for the world when Mary Magdalene left the garden and proclaimed to the world, “He is Risen.”

Easter begins for us when we go out into the world and proclaim the message of Jesus to the world. Jesus preached love over laws and we are called to do the same!

EASTER

is the perfect time to remember
our many blessings…

Thank you to everyone who so generously gave of their time and talents to make this year’s Easter Celebration an AMAZING day for all!

CALVARY KIDZ

The kids did a wonderful job reciting and signing Psalm 23 during our Easter worship service.

Next Week: Doubting Thomas

We’ll See if You’re a “Doubting Thomas”or Not!

CONFIRMATION
