No-Excuse Weekend at Calvary!

Daylight Saving Time ends this weekend. Don't forget to set your clock back one hour before you go to bed on Saturday. With all that extra sleep, you might even make it to first service on Sunday! Nice.

Grand Opening weekend

So this weekend is our grand opening. We've met in our new worship space for the last two weeks but it was under the radar. Lots of tweaking still to be done. It could take several more weeks to address lighting and sound issues. But temperature shouldn't be a problem with installation this week of a new thermostat.

This weekend has been three-and-a-half years in the making! It was Spring '04 when we began talking about the need to build momentum toward a move north. To all who stuck with us through the ups and downs, I say thank you! To all who gave sacrificially toward and worked tirelessly on the new space, I say thank you! To our staff, our architect, and our general contractor, I say thank you!

On Wednesday, November 7, we'd like to have a 'dedication service' of sorts to recognize, by name, many who did so much to make this happen. Most of all we give God props! He put His desire for us into our hearts and then enabled us to accomplish it together. We'll never forget these experiences moving forward, trusting God for what we could not see.

This afternoon, between 4:30 and 5:00, I will be on The Word 99.3FM talking about how we got our new space and what a God-thing it was. Check it out!
