THURSDAY SERVICE SPECIAL VIDEO PRESENTATION – You won’t want to miss the video interview of Frank Drown on Thursday, June 25th. Frank Drown (born ca. 1920) is an American author and missionary. Frank led the ground search party for 5 missionaries (Jim Elliot, Nate Saint, Ed McCully, Peter Fleming, and Roger Youderian) who were part of Operation Auca, an attempt to make contact with and evangelize the Huaorani people of the rainforest of Ecuador. The Huaorani were an isolated tribe known for their violence against both their own people and outsiders who entered their territory. These missionaries began making regular flights over Huaorani settlements in Sept. 1955 dropping gifts. In Jan. 1956 they were attacked and speared by a group of Huaorani warriors. The news of their deaths was broadcast around the world, and Life magazine covered the event with a photo essay. Come to this Thursday’s service at 7:00 p.m. to learn more of this incredible story and how the Huaorani (including some of those involved in the killing) eventually were led to Christianity.

SUMMER WORK DAYS – We have scheduled workdays for each Saturday (except July 4th) beginning at 10 a.m. throughout the summer. We are also looking for people who would be interested in preparing lunch for the work crews on the Saturday workdays. We have much to do this summer: maintenance, painting, construction, and cleaning. There’s something for almost anyone! If you are interested in volunteering at the church this summer, please call the church office at 724-377-2522.

 CALVARY CHAPEL CARD MINISTRY – Do you know someone who needs a pick me up? The Lord has a ministry for that need. The card ministry is a way that we can reach out to encourage and show God’s people that He is there. We have a card request box on the table in the back of the sanctuary. Just fill out the index card with the name, address, and prayer request of the person in need. Jesus will do the rest. “Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone, in whom the whole building being fitted together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord, in whom you also are being built together for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit. Ephesians 2:19-22

 NURSERY MINISTRY LEADER NEEDED – We are looking for volunteer(s) to take over the Nursery Ministry. This primarily involves making the nursery schedule for each service. Please see Diane Swartz for more information or call the church office (724-377-2522)
