CALVARY CHURCH WEEKLY NEWS | |

|
When coming to the Calvary Sanctuary on Sunday to worship God, you are entering the house of God. This is not because of the physical Sanctuary but because Calvary is a local church of the living God — the household of God (1 Timothy 3:15). We come into His presence with joy and reverence (Psalms 100 and 122). I realize that emergencies can happen on Sunday morning and that organizing children to go to Children’s Ministry and Nursery takes time. However, as far as you are able, plan to arrive on time. If for any reason you are late, try to sit near the back, so you don’t distract other worshipers.
We usually begin the service with an instrumental prelude. Once the prelude begins, please keep your talking to a minimum. I know we want to welcome those around us, but the prelude is to help us prepare our hearts for worship. Also, listening to the prelude shows respect to those who have prepared this music as an act of worship to the Lord. If you consider you may have to leave during the service, sit near the back. It is distracting to leave during the service before the final benediction.
Come with a heart prepared to worship God, ready to listen and respond to the preaching of the Holy Scriptures, and to fellowship with your brothers and sisters in Christ. Worshiping our great and gracious God is a high and holy privilege. So let us worship God with joy, reverence, and deep thanksgiving.
