Special Announcements

 

There will be a SPECIAL VOTERS MEETING in the sanctuary immediately after the worship service on Sunday, February 26, 2012 to consider a  recommendation from the Elders to pay all of the moving and travel expenses for Rev. Qualman and his family.  Guidelines of  the Texas District state that "it is customary for the congregation to pay all necessary and reasonable moving expenses for the worker and family."  Mt. Calvary needs to raise approximately $8000 at this time.

The annual Men's Club Chicken and Sausage BBQ scheduled for Sunday, Sept. 11th has been POSTPONED due to the extreme fire danger and dry conditions.  Also, the County Judge has issued an emergency local disaster declaration which bans outdoor welding, cigarettes and barbequeing.   The BBQ will be re-scheduled as soon as favorable weather conditions permit.    Tickets already purchased will be honored on the rescheduled date, or refunds will be issued, if desired,from the Men's Club member who sold you the ticket. 

 

Mt. Calvary needs YOU!!!  The church is looking for VOLUNTEERS to fill serving spots in worship.  If you have any interest in serving Mt. Calvary as an acolyte, presenting children's messages, ushering, lectoring, counting money, operating the sound system or videotaping, please contact the church office at 968-3938, or email secretary@mtcalvary-lcms.org.  None of it is difficult, and any necessary training will be provided.  Remember that, whether we are giving money, time, and/or volunteer help, we offer it as a sacrifice pleasing to God.
