This Week at Calvin 9/11/23

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. Inez
Hoogeveen will provide the prelude and accompany the hymns of: “This Is the Day”, “How Great Thou
Art”, “Man of Sorrows”, and “It is Well With My Soul”.
Pastor Hofman has begun a series of sermons on the end times. This Sunday’s text is 1 Thessalonians 4:
13-18.
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.
A Special Offering will be taken for Lifewise Academy.
This Sunday, September 17, following the service, we will meet to select 2 new elders and 1 new
deacon. If you are unable to attend on the 17 th , you may submit an absentee approval ballot by
stopping by the church between 10-noon on Monday – Friday and submitting a signed absentee ballot
with Pastor Brian or Janet in the church office.
Do you enjoy listening to inspirational Christian music? On October 6, 7 PM, at B.J. Haan Auditorium,
Dordt University, the groups Four for Him, the Klaasens, and Ensemble Royale will perform. There will
be a freewill offering taken for BLI (Bible League International). Invite your friends to “An Evening of
Praise.”
