What’s your favorite church holiday? Most of us land on Easter or Christmas, and that makes sense, you know, since Jesus is a pretty big deal to us. But are those actual holidays? When you have a holiday from school, that means that school is cancelled, right? But a church holiday generally involves not less church, but the exact opposite. Hmm…I’m not proposing a change for Easter or Christmas, but I do have an alternate for your new favorite church holiday, and it does indeed involve you not going to a church building on the holy day.
We value serving in our city to the point that we cancel our weekend worship gatherings and send folks out in teams to bless the people who live around us. The local paper ran a great article about CityServe this week. If you want more info, click here.
We’re going to be promoting CityServe this weekend at midtown and inviting people to sign up as individuals or groups. As a leader of a lifegroup, I can tell you that one of the best decisions our group ever made–one that actually shaped our group and helped us bond–was to dive into a pretty big CityServe project a few years ago.
At Calvary, we think everyone ought to be involved in a lifegroup, and everyone ought to be serving. When we serve, we partner with God where he is already at work, and that leads to all sorts of good/God things!
We’d love to have you join us! CityServe, April 13 & 14…
oh, and a big shout out to Greg Ford for his video magnificence, and Jeremiah Kingshipp & Curt Himmelburger for their awesomeness.
