Legos, Children & Mothers

Last Sunday at Calvary was an amazing place to be!  The children’s musical was performed by our kids at two services, and we had Legos being handed out at the other services that Pastor Matt preached at.  And, to top it all off, it was Mother’s Day.  So, we had the opportunity to celebrate our mothers, grandmothers and the women who are like mothers to us in our lives.  It was a good day! 

The children’s musical touched all of our hearts.  They gave every one of us a “piece of Heaven!”  They provided the entire Gospel message to us in less than an hour.  That’s better than most of us pastors can do!!  Thank you to all the kids, choirs and staff who were involved in planning, rehearsing and performing the musical.  It was a real GIFT to us all.  

If you attended the traditional worship services, you received a Lego piece as you walked into church.  It was fun to see everyone’s reaction to the comments that the ushers made:  “We are going to be building something this Sunday!”  I know that many of you were a bit perplexed by it, while others wondered if we were going to start another building campaign, and still others wondered how to stick the Lego piece on the Lego table up in front of the church.  Pastor Matt’s sermon helped us to see how we are all part of building the Church.  The Legos helped each of us to see in a tangible way how the Church is built and how we need each other -- a community --  to BE the Church.
