Believer's Baptism
Why Baptism? A believer’s baptism is an immersion of a believer in water in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Baptism is an act of identification with Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection — a public commitment to Christ’s people and a symbolic burial of your old life. Our next believer’s baptism opportunity is Sunday, February 9. Sign up here!

All Church Prayer Gathering
Calvary family, you are invited to come pray, meet with the Lord, seek Him, wait on Him, hear His heart/voice. Why leave home to pray? Great question!

Meeting 6-7 PM in the sanctuary on the third Sunday of each month.

GriefShare Begins
Starting January 9 // 6:30PM // Calvary Fargo
A GriefShare support group is a safe, welcoming place where people understand the difficult emotions of grief. Through this 13-week group, you’ll discover what to expect in the days ahead and what’s “normal” in grief. Since there are no neat, orderly stages of grief, you’ll learn helpful ways of coping with grief, in all its unpredictability—and gain solid support each step of the way.
For more information, and to register, click here!

Along the way, you'll see how Jesus, the Messiah, brought His kingdom to earth for everybody.

All The King's Men
Meeting Wednesdays, 6:30-7:45 PM
Come and join us in a line-by-line study through the book of Genesis with the specific purpose of learning applicable life lessons from the men of Genesis.

Bad Girls of the Bible Begins
Sunday Mornings // Starting January 5th at 9:00AM
Think you’ve gone too far? Done too much? Take heart. You’re not alone.
Eve had food issues. Potiphar’s Wife and Delilah had man trouble. Lot’s Wife and Michal couldn’t let go of the past, Sapphira couldn’t let go of money, and Jezebel couldn’t let go of anything. Yet the Woman at the Well quenched her thirst for the truth, while Rahab and the Sinful Woman left their sordid histories behind.
Let ten Bad Girls from the past show you how God can transform your future.
