Lunch & Conversation with Calvary Baptist
This Sunday, at 12:30, Calvary Baptist has invited Christ Community Church to sit with their congregation, during Black History Month. At the luncheon there will be a moderated conversation about race issues. This will be a time and way to safely ask questions for the purpose of understanding each other better. It will be a great learning opportunity for adults and young people alike. In this environment the church has a perfect opportunity to do what we are supposed to do best, love each other. Please bring a dish to pass and join us!
