The following are the announcements for the week of July 27:
Scent Request
Some in our church family have sensitivities to scents and chemicals. For the health and consideration of others, we’d like to ask everyone to please use unscented hygiene and cosmetic products on Sunday mornings. Thank you for your consideration.
Parking
- Please be aware of the “no stopping” signs after the school parking on Evelyn Ave. People have been ticketed.
- Also, please be aware to not park in other churches' parking lots. Thanks!
We are happy to announce that we have hired one of our dedicated church members, Janis Henry, as our new Office Administrator. Janis will begin her work this August. Please pray for her during this time and as she prepares for this vital role in our church. You can communicate with her.
Small Groups this Fall
As we gear up for our fall launch for small groups here at Calvary, we want to remind you of the vital role our groups play in our church’s discipleship of you. This is the key way we seek to provide community, bible study and discussion, prayer, and mutual care for our church family. We are in need of some additional leaders and hosts for groups this upcoming year. If you have led in the past or are interested in leading a group, we need you. And if you are willing to host a group in your home or apartment (no matter how small!), we would like to speak with you. Please message Adam Lim.
Evening Gathering – August 3
Please join us here next Sunday, at 5pm, for evening gathering! We will worship pray and have a bit of preaching, then share a meal afterwards! Please bring something to share for dinner.
Bible in Easy English Class
Today will be the last class for Bible in Easy English. They will be taking a break for the summer and resume in September. This class is run by Marylyn McRoberts during the 11am service and helps those with English as their second language learn the Bible.

Serving Opportunities
Whether you are a regular attender or member of Calvary, we encourage you to use your spiritual gifts and serve in our various ministries! If you know where you’d like to serve or inquire more, please sign up at www.calvarybaptistchurch.ca/serve. If you’re unsure where you would fit, please reach out to any of our pastors and/or elders, and they would be happy to help you explore what your gifts are.
Interested in Getting Baptized?
We believe baptism is the most crucial first step of obedience for believers to take, as a way to publicly profess their faith in Jesus. You can sign up for baptism or inquire for more information at calvarybaptistchurch.ca/baptism.
Worship Database Playlist
Do you sometimes find yourself trying to learn the songs we sing at Calvary on the fly? Do you want to know them in advance? Or maybe you know most of them already, but you want to belt them out at small group, at home, in the car, on the bus, in the shower, or wherever? Or maybe you want to teach your kids these songs? We’ve got you covered. We’ve put together a Spotify playlist with our entire worship database. You can access it at calvarybaptistchurch.ca/worship.
Sermon Manuscripts
If English is your second language and having a copy of the sermon would help you understand better, please let us know, and we’ll get you a printed or soft copy of the sermon.
