This has been an unusual, but expected week. Cold, snow, rain and freezing is to be expected this time of year. We never really know when it’s going to hit us, but we do know that it is coming, sooner or later. It throws our schedules off, changes our routines, but hopefully it brings some fun and joy. If you found yourself “shut-in” for a couple of days, I hope you were able to spend extra, quality time with your family. I know for some of you, it makes you a little stir crazy because “cabin fever” begins to set in. Well, by the time you read this I hope it’s over and we can return to a somewhat normal schedule.

Gather – This week we’ll be finishing up our series, Getting Calvary Back on Track. I’m excited about preaching from Acts about how the gospel is for everyone. I look forward to sharing our lives in worship as we approach a majestic God and adore Him. God is the only one worthy of our worship!

Grow – Sunday night we will have our 2^nd Sunday School Vision Casting Meeting. This is a meeting you will not want to miss as Keith Higginbotham leads us into envisioning what God has in store for the future. God is already adding to our numbers and I can’t wait to find out the next steps we need to take to make God’s vision for our Sunday school groups a reality.

Give – Calvary is indebted to so many people getting involved in volunteering and giving of their time. For example, Fankie Lyda and Pam Greene have volunteered to organize a Women’s Bible Conference on Saturday, March 28. Some men asked what we needed to do for this and I simply told them, “Stay out of their way!” People giving of themselves is the first step to seeing a harvest of fruit and I believe this conference will bring in a great harvest for our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Go – Going is a reflection of our growing. We all need to do something with our spiritual growth. Growing in God’s grace will send us out in love to build relational bridges with strangers. Our goal should be to turn strangers into friends who will eventually listen to God’s story of redemptive rescue He is weaving into our lives. As you are going about your daily life who is God sovereignly and strategically placing in your path with whom you can have that Gospel conversation?

Grace & Peace,
