Please be in prayer as we explore personal and corporate renewal. Here are the texts and titles: March 30 Renewal through Dependence: 2 Chronicles 20:1-30 April 6 Renewal though God’s Word: Nehemiah 8:1-18 April 13 Guest Speaker: Dr. Jan Hettinga – Embracing an Open Door Lifestyle: The Impact of a Praying Missional Church: Colossians 4:2-6 April 20 Renewal through Confession: Nehemiah 9:1-38 April 27 Renewal through Fasting: Miscellaneous Passages Wed, 26 Mar 2008 16:52:42 +0100 http://www.calvaryefc.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=1096&Itemid=791 It is freezing cold here in Rochester. A couple of weeks ago one of the brothers mentioned that when it is bitterly cold you can blow a bubble (kids bubble mix) and then pop it and it will explode into crystals. He tried it and it worked - amazing. I haven't tried it yet - but maybe today! During the month of February we are focusing on missions in our preaching here at Calvary. Here is the schedule: February 3 The Centrality of the Church in Missions Acts 13:1-3 February 10 Christianity: It's Contagious Acts 1:8 and other scriptures February 17 Incarnational Ministry Matthew 9:35 - Pastor Kevin Barnhart preaching February 24 Mapping Missions Pastor Kevin Barnhart Preaching March 2 Why Missions: The Lamb of God John 1 - Pastor Kevin Barnhart preaching Many of you are aware that from February 16th through March 2nd I am leading a group of 38 people on another study program to Israel. I have done this about six times before. Please pray that the scriptures would come alive for those on the study program.

This Sunday (December 23rd) I am preaching on Matthew 1:18-25 where I will focus on Mary, Joseph and the virgin birth. There will be a powerful two minute video collage in the message recounting the conversion of the father of a Children's Heart Project girl. He just came to faith in Christ last week! Christmas Eve I will be preaching from John 1:1-5 where the apostle John writes a theological description of the birth of Jesus Christ. Kevin Barnhart will be preaching on Sunday December 30th. Kevin and Emma are on home assignment from the mission field in the Ukraine. Emma has cancer and so they will be spending the next year here in Rochester praying for healing and getting treatment at Mayo. Pray for Kevin as he preaches the last message of the year and transitions us into 2008. January 2008 January 6 - Challenge Sunday for the Capital Campaign - 1 Chronicles 29:1-9 January 13 - Commitment Sunday - 1 Chronicles 29:10-19 January 20 - Sanctity of Human Life Sunday - Psalm 139:13-16 A live ultrasound will be a part of the morning message - thanks to the assistance of Emily Bawden and the New Life Family Services.
