Come meet with others your age as we connect, build relationships & grow in our faith while exploring the issues young adults face and serve others in the church and outside community.
We’re meeting informally for breakfast before church to talk about what God’s doing in our lives and challenge each other to connect in community, grow in our faith, serve others and share Christ. Stop by and connect! To help some people find where we’re meeting, we’ll put up a sign on a sheet of paper with the picture on the left. Look for us!
You can always check the schedule, email or call/text Pastor Jeff (302-632-0637) to find out where we’re meeting. For the next few weeks we’ll be meeting at Calvary at 9:45 am–either in the lobby by the coffee cart or at the outside tables between the buildings if the weather is nice.

Throughout the Old Testament, God made provision for the poor through His people (Exodus 23:11, Leviticus 19:10, Deuteronomy 15:7, etc.). And often, the words of His prophets show that God is unhappy when the poor were mistreated and abandoned (Isaiah 3:14-15, Jeremiah 5:27-29, Ezekiel 16:49-50, etc.) In the New Testament, Jesus was clear that caring for those in need goes hand in hand with being His disciples.
For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’
“Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’
“The King will reply, ‘I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.’
Matthew 24-35-40
Do you want to be a part of serving the poor? Want to be a part of something bigger than yourself? This is your opportunity to serve those in need in the name of Jesus–and have an unforgettable adventure in the process! We’ll spend time in Baltimore, serving those in need.
Group #1
We’ll be heading to Baltimore to be a part of Convoy of Hope on Thursday, June 4. The biggest cost of the trip will be the hotel stay. Meals will be on your own, so bring food money. There are many ways to serve. We will also be part of the publicity, set-up and break-down teams. If you plan on this option, please talk with me beforehand so we can figure out hotel arrangements, etc.
Group #2
Realistically, not everyone can get off from work/school for Thursday and Friday. A second group will leave Calvary at approximately 4:00 pm on Friday afternoon (June 5) in order to make the volunteer meeting in time. (All volunteers are required to attend a meeting the night before the event at 7:00 pm.) If you plan on this option, please talk with me beforehand so we can figure out hotel arrangements, etc.
Still have questions? Contact us. We will also have an information table at Calvary in the lobby for the next couple of weeks.
Remember:
Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.
James 1:27

We know your faith is always at work, but make room in your schedule to put your faith to physical work!
This Saturday, we will join forces with RC&D (a nonprofit organization) to help local families by restoring their way of life. So far we’ve built decks, ramps and replaced an entrance door; but the most rewarding part of all is that we leave the mark of Christ in their hearts.
Come join us and make a difference for a family in this community! Contact Irene Clark 302-423-3219 or email for more info!
