This Week at Calvin 7/12/23

Calvin Church, 326 7 th St SE, welcomes all who are looking for a church family to worship, learn and
fellowship with us. Worship begins at 10:00 AM. Pastor Brian Hofman will lead us in worship. Miriam
Hector will provide the prelude and accompany the hymns of: “God is Here”, “Refuge and Rock”, “Thy
Word”, “The Battle Belongs to the Lord”, and “You Are My King”.
Pastor Hofman has begun a series of sermons on the 1 st book of Samuel. This Sunday’s text is Samuel
6:1-7:1.
This Sunday Calvin will be celebrating communion. As we prepare to celebrate communion, we ask God
for the proper spirit in which to celebrate the sacrament that we may repent sincerely of all sin and that
by it we shall be spiritually revived, and strengthened in faith, hope, and love through Christ our Lord.
This Sunday we will receive a special offering for ReFrame Ministries. ReFrame Ministries is formerly
Back to God Ministries International. The English programs include Today; Family Fire; Groundwork;
Think Christian an online magazine; Kids Corner; and Church Juice a website for church leaders.
A library has been set up in the basement. You are welcome to check out any of the titles you find
there.
A recap of VBS this summer. We had a Stellar group of 33 children learning how to shine Jesus’ Light.
They raised $307.00 for Her Health in Le Mars.
At 2:00 PM our church has opened its doors to the Chuukees Church family in our community. We
welcome them to worship God in our sanctuary.
The church office is open every morning from 10 to noon. If you have any prayer requests and
concerns you like included in the bulletin, please direct them to our church secretary at 712-546-4767.
