Lenten One Another Groups Graphic V2.png

There is still space in the Sunday morning one Another Group at 11:00 AM. Come this Sunday to RM 015 if you'd like to join. You could also round up some friends and host your own group. We'll provide the videos and the guide for the facilitator.

Questions? Please reach out to Jamie Swope at j.swope@firstandcalvary.org. We look forward to journeying through Lent together!

Artists Anonymous is a gathering for creatives of all kinds—writers, painters, musicians, makers, and those simply exploring their creative voice. Join us on March 2 from 6:00–8:00 PM in the First & Calvary Library for an evening of creativity, reflection, and meaningful conversation. Together we make space to share our work, encourage one another, and remember that nurturing the creative life is not a luxury, but a faithful response to the God who creates. Whether you come to share or simply to listen, you are welcome at the table.

Kids in the Kitchen.png

During your time worshiping at First & Calvary, it's likely that you have enjoyed fellowship over something delicious from volunteers in our F&C Kitchen. Maybe you or your kids have wondered how the kitchen works, who makes the delicious food, or if you could get involved? We love bringing kids into the rhythms of the church, and one of those rhythms is service. If you have a child who would like to learn about serving in our kitchen–and at the same time enjoy a Make Your Own Pizza night–this event is for them! Your children are invited to work with Carol Chappell in our F&C Kitchen to make a personal pizza that they can enjoy at the event, a family-sized pizza to bring home, and fruit pizza for dessert. This is a time to let our kids learn and shine, so while they are cooking in the kitchen there will be a separate time of fellowship for parents in the Atrium. We hope your family will be able to join us!

Fun Trivia Night.png

The Congregational Life Committee is hosting a Fun Trivia Night with a pizza dinner on March 20 from 6:30–8:30 PM! Start thinking about a team of 2–8 people—invite family, friends, or neighbors and make it a night of laughter and friendly competition. Don’t have a team? Come anyway, and we’ll gladly add you to one. Please RSVP by March 16, and we’ll look forward to a great evening together!

Desiring God by John Piper (1).png

For our next Pastor's Book Club, we will be discussing John Piper’s classic, Desiring God: Meditations of a Christian Hedonist. In a year when we are looking to “deepen our delight” in God, Piper’s biblical reflections are especially helpful. As he writes in the preface, “This is a serious book about being happy in God. It’s about happiness because that is what our Creator commands: “Delight yourself in the Lord” (Ps. 37:4).” Join us to discuss this great book on Wednesday, March 25th at 6:00 PM in the church library.

Good News Easter Celebration Main Graphic.png

We hope your family will join us for a celebration of the good news of Easter. Together we will hear the Easter story, and then your child will be able to participate in a variety of fun and creative activities, including music, painting, cookie decorating, and building their own Resurrection Garden, all while following Jesus' journey toward the empty tomb. Children ages 5th grade and under will also have the opportunity to participate in an egg hunt.

We kindly ask that you register online for this event no later than Monday, March 16th. Families who register by the deadline and arrive on time will receive a copy of The Action Bible Easter: 25 Stories about Jesus' Resurrection as a gift from First & Calvary while supplies last.
