Why Be Baptist?

From Donna Hopkins Britt:

Contrary to public opinion, to me, being Baptist is about minimizing human contributions to religion and letting God’s Spirit work in each person as he/she prayerfully feels led. The Baptist History and Heritage Society has a very informative web site, in case you’re curious click here. You also can find out more about the alliances Calvary supports on this web site by clicking here. I have some pamphlets in my office which you may borrow as well.

The Baptist World Alliance is a fellowship of 214 Baptist conventions and unions comprising a membership of more than 37 million baptized believers and a community of 105 million. Its Mission Statement is “Networking the Baptist family to impact the world for Christ.” “Baptist World” magazine, the quarterly publication of the Baptist World Alliance, is now online. You can find news from around the world at bwanet.org, including information on Baptists’ 400th birthday. DHB

It's All About Missions

Powell River Mission Team Report

Your Mission Team's trip to the Appalachian coal fields this year was blessed in many ways, but especially because four of our Sioux Indian friends from the Standing Rock Reservation in South Dakota drove to Virginia to work alongside the Roanoke Valley Baptist team.

STANDING ROCK, NORTH/SOUTH DAKOTA (July 25-Aug. 1) Reservations will be made April 6 for flights and hotels. The Mission Committee has put together an application and packet of information (including about scholarships), which you may pick up in the church office or receive by email (contact the church office if you’d like it sent to you).

If you intend to go with the group from Calvary, here are the deadlines:

 June 30, $100 to pay for food during the week You will make your own reservations for the hotel near our site at an approximate cost of $50/room/night. The only other costs would be food in transit and souvenirs.

Talk with Evelyn Lewis, Sandra Overstreet, or Pastor Britt for more information.
