You are invited to join Pastor Nola in the parlor from 6:30 to 6:50 PM every evening of Holy Week for a time of silent prayer and meditation.Saturday Grave Decorating
Everyone is invited to help decorate graves at God’s Acre on Saturday, April 4th, beginning at 9:30 AM. For over 100 years, the churches of the Salem Congregation have been decorating the oldest graves at God’s Acre in preparation for the Easter Sunrise Service. Many of our fellow brothers and sisters buried in these graves no longer have family who can place flowers for Easter morning. We invite everyone—children, youth, young adults, and those young at heart to help us keep this tradition alive. Many hands make light work. We hope that this will take no longer than an hour with your helping hands.If you have fresh-cut flowers, flowering shrubs, or greenery that you can donate, please bring them to the church any night this week and leave them in the kitchen. If you are planning to help decorate, you can bring them with you Saturday morning to God’s Acre. Remember to bring your gloves and clippers to help make quick work of our decorating. If you have any questions, contact Ginni Baker.Facing Death as a Christian: May 3rd Workshop
On Sunday, May 3rd, following worship, we will have a lunch and workshop. In this one-hour presentation and conversation, we will explore what we can learn from the Bible about death. How is death viewed in scripture, and how can we, as Christians, prepare for and face our own death? What have we to look forward to, when the body declines and dies? Come and reflect with brothers and sisters, knowing that God always accompanies us on every journey – even this one! Sign up to attend at forms.gle/o47QTYYeE7aMvYeq5 or by calling the church office. Questions? Contact Pastor Nola (nola@calvarymoravian.org).Brew Your Faith
On April 14th at 6 PM, Zach Routh will be leading our monthly Brew Your Faith meeting. It is held at Lot 63 in Old Salem (614 S Main St). We hope to see you there for fellowship!
Graduate Recognition Sunday
On Sunday, May 17th, we will observe our Graduate Recognition Day. On this special day of worship, we will be acknowledging all those who have completed the major milestone of graduation from high school, college, or graduate school. By May 8th, please email Jacob (jacob@calvarymoravian.org) and let us know of anyone in your family who will be graduating from high school, college, or graduate school. This will give us the opportunity to announce graduate information in our church publications, including the bulletin and our newsletters. In addition to the names of graduates, please provide school/college information, graduation date, and any future plans for the students following graduation. We look forward to acknowledging and congratulating all our graduates!
