Lamb of God - Basilica of Cosmas and Damien

Lamb of God depicted over the four rivers of creation. This is a popular motif emphasizing Christ as the advent of a new creation. The Basilica is the oldest church in the Roman Forum, and is an example of Christian appropriation of pagan temples. The basilica hall was attached to a round temple that has been identified as the Temple of Jupiter Stator, which has been dated to the 3rd century BC.

Starting soon (January 2026), Calvary is starting a new project called “The Giving Pantry.”

We want everyone at Calvary to help fill bags with food that hungry neighbors in Cabarrus County can use.

Here’s what you can do:

1.  Starting this Sunday, grab an empty bag at church.

2.  Fill the bag with things like canned chicken or tuna, soup, veggies, oatmeal, granola bars, fruit cups, etc. (We estimate that a filled bag costs about $32 at Aldi.) Please choose cans with pop-tops if they are available.

3.  Bring the filled bags back to church by January 18.

If you’d rather give money, that’s great too—we’ll buy the food for you.

Jesus said when we feed hungry people, it’s like we’re feeding Him. By filling these bags, we get to share God’s love in a real way.

Growing in Faith - Sunday Mornings at 9:45am in the fellowship hall.

Come join us as we begin a new video study on January 25th: The Last Supper - Conversations that Led to the Cross
Travel with Jesus on the road to Jerusalem in this profound Lenten six-week study that explores the parables and stories Jesus told at tables along the way to his final meal. Will Willimon invites viewers to experience how these table stories--about searching shepherds, welcoming hosts, prodigal sons, and rejected invitations--illuminate the deeper meaning of the Last Supper and Christ's sacrifice. All are welcome!

Discipleship Class - The Discipleship Group will be starting a new study on Sunday, January 18th at 5pm in the parlor. All are welcome!

The Discipleship group will be studying The Separation of Church and Hate by John Fugelsang. This book is a probing, insightful, and witty look at the ways that Christian nationalists misconstrue the Biblical teachings of Jesus and how to take the Bible back.

The Slideshow features pictures of Trailfest and of workers preparing the trail...

Trailfest occurred on May 24th. It was sponsored by Stewardship and Congregational Life. We enjoyed a cookout and activities celebrating the opening of the Serenity Trail.

Work has continued through the summer with much progress made on preparing the trail as a beautiful, serene place for our community to enjoy.
