Important Message from Dr. Chivalette (Dec. 5, 2014)





Dear Calvary Friends and Families,

 

     Christmas is such a joyous season of the year which allows all to share wonderful family times and memories.  It is a joyous time indeed.  Also, it is the time of the year for those of us who claim the Lord Jesus as our Savior and Lord to pause and remember the precious gift God gave us by sending His only Son, Jesus to earth.  This same man, God in human flesh, would eventually endure the cross of Calvary so that we might find salvation through His redemptive work on our behalf (Romans 3:23-25).  While we enjoy family, exchange gifts, and revel in the merriment that the season brings, let us take time to thank God for the greatest gift which is salvation and eternal life found only through Jesus.  May the Lord bless each of you and yours during this very special time of the year.
