Leading Households of Faith
A household of faith can exist anywhere, regardless of one's history or current context. Households rely on togetherness and shared opportunities for spiritual growth. In this season of pandemic, it means watching worship services together on TV, building birdhouses together, creating opportunities to open God's Word. It means making new socially distant memories like a trunk & costume parade and coaching and encouraging one another in Life Circles. It means establishing new and meaningful rituals that produce new and and meaningful memories for you and your kids. Calvary is on that journey with you. We, the body of Christ are an extended household, members one of another. The Lord bless you.

In Christ,
