1. Welcome to Calvary
July 27, 2014
Seventh Sunday After Pentecost
"The kingdom of heaven is like a
mustard seed, which a man took
and sowed in his field, which
indeed is the least of all the seeds;
but when it is grown it is greater
than the herbs and becomes a tree,
so that the birds of the air come
and nest in its branches."
Matthew 13:31-32

2. We welcome new members
today! Janet McConnell, Tim
and Julie Ries, Curt and Sue
Baumann, Bill and Kay Sykes,
and David and Linda Jones join
our church family here at
Calvary through Transfer and/or
the Affirmation of Baptism.
Please give them a warm
Calvary welcome!

3. Who wrote the book of Colossians? ___________
Bible Quiz
Hint: The answer can be found in the book of Colossians.
There are Bibles in the pew racks
Write your answer and your name on a piece of paper and
drop it in the Bible Quiz box in the rear of the sanctuary. A
winner will be drawn each week from all the correct
answers submitted. The previous week’s winner’s name
will appear on a slide each week, and who knows, you
might even get a surprise!
Paul and Timothy, Colossians 1:1

4. Season of Thanks
During the season of Pentecost, Calvary will be giving thanks for its past;
its present; its future. We will be thanking groups and individuals and
most of all God for the blessings bestowed on Calvary Evangelical
Lutheran Church. We are calling this a Season of Thanks!
During this Season of Thanks each of us, daily, need to remember things
and people for which and whom we are thankful. Even on those days
when everything seems to be falling apart… we can be thankful that
God is there to catch us and protect us …. just like God always does!

Video – Sound - Projector
If anyone is interested in helping with the sound board,
videoing the sermons or creating/running the projector
announcements please contact Steve Dardinger. There is
currently a very limited number of people who know how to
do these things and when they are not here it won’t get
done. We need some help!

13. Reminder – Don’t Forget
Your Name Tag
Not everyone remembers your name. We encourage
everyone to wear their name tags. It helps not only
our visitors, but all of us to put a name to a face.
There are cords to use as lanyards on top of the
mailboxes. Help yourself.

14. Elections for council will be October 19. The terms of
Craig Solle, Jean Michelson, Janis Lane and Charlotte

for council? Council meets the 3rd Tuesday of every
month at 7pm. If you think you would be interested
or want more information please contact Craig Solle,
Jim Segelhorst or Jean Michelson. They will be able to
answer any questions you might have. Please give
prayerful consideration to Sharing your God given
talents with Calvary.

15. Stewardship
Stewards of Time
We are busy people! God has given
us 24 hours in each day to live, work,
serve and praise. How are we using
our time? How might we best
steward the time that God has given
to us, as individuals and a
congregation, to love God and our
neighbor?
