God strengthens us Sunday by Sunday with His Word and the Means of Grace, including the Preaching of His Word, Holy Communion, and the Fellowship of Brothers and Sisters in Christ.

The First Sunday in Lent is focused on Satan’s attempts to overthrow God’s Work in Christ. St Luke’s Gospel gives us an occasion to reflect on Christ’s use of Scripture against Satan, and Satan’s belated attempt to twist Holy Scripture to demonic purposes. We can take lessons for our own use of God’s Word against the wiles of the Devil.

Fellowship will follow the Service as usual, and at 10:30 we’ll be starting up some new study of Scripture, because we’ve finished our study of the Book of Isaiah. Bible Study will be available on the same Zoom link as used for Worship. A Sunday Bible Study Guide may be posted with the Service Folder but may not depending on what we study.

If you cannot be among God's people in person this Sunday, you can join us by Zoom.

To join Zoom by computer, go to our home page. On the home page, to the right of the photo slideshow, click on “Sunday Worship” and you will be taken directly to the Zoom link.

Here is the link for our Sunday Service Folder and, if available, for the Sunday Bible Study Guide. You can also find the Service Folder for Ash Wednesday, 2 March, at this link. The Zoom recording of the Service will be available to any who ask by email to Pastor.MtCalvaryep@gmail.com and may be posted on the website, depending on availability of space.

Our Call Committee has mailed all members bios of candidates to be considered for a Call as our full time Pastor. A congregational meeting is planned for Sunday, 13 March, at 2pm. The sole agenda item will be to decide together on a Pastor to call into our Fellowship and Mission.

Lenten Midweek Services continue this Wednesday, 9 March at 6pm. A light supper will be provided by our Hospitality Committee at 5:15 pm. More details will come in another email on Tuesday, including Zoom information for whose who choose to worship from home.
