Thanks for stopping by the Calvary Crew Blogspot! For you first time visiters, Calvary Crew is the Jr. and Senior high youth group at Green Lake Calvary Church. Crew is a noisey bunch of students who love Jesus and one another. Come check us out Sunday evenings (during the school year) in the youth center at GLCC where you will find all kinds of fun, friends and most importantly experience the love of Jesus.
OutFlow is a summer ministry for teens, where faith and belief is put into practice when we bring our love from Jesus into the community.
So go ahead and scroll through the blog. You will see what we've been up to and where we are going as a youth group. You will also find FNT (9th -12th Friday Night Thing ) info, web links, forms and other helpful information so check back often.

Winds of Fire- Opportunity to be the hands and feet of Jesus

"We are therefore Christ's ambassadors, as though God were making His appeal through us..."
-1 Corinthians 5:18a

A couple of weeks ago many of you experienced the privilege of exercising your faith outside the walls of the church building, when you gave blankets and prayed for peoples hurts and needs. We witnessed firsthand the need for Jesus in the lives of people. We also noticed how receptive people are when offered love and compassion.

We have another opportunity to represent Jesus to these same people Saturday January 17. We will leave GLCC at 4:20 and meet Martin and Terry at Streetlights once again, before heading out to the streets to share the same opportunity of salvation Jesus first shared with us.

When: Saturday, January 17
Where: Downtown GR
Leave GLCC: 4:20 pm
Returnto GLCC: approximatly 9:00pm

Hope to see you there!

Faith in action

"A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another."

-Jesus (after washing His disciples feet).

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. "

-Jesus

When Jesus landed and saw a large crowd, he had compassion on them and healed their sick.

-Matthew 14:14 (then fed them)

What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save him? Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to him, "Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed," but does nothing about his physical needs, what good is it? In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.

-James 2:14-17

-Crew (collecting blankets)

Because He first loved us.

How Great is our God Pt. 3 & 4

Here is part 3 & 4 of "How Great is our God!" a message by Louie Giglio. Each video is about 10 minutes in length and well worth every second. Louie is a very gifted speaker and leaves us with a powerful message about the greatness of God and God's creation, from the vastness and complexity of the universe, to the smallest of details found at the cellular level. After watching these you may find it necessary to pause and worship the Creator of all things big and small.

If you haven't watched parts 1& 2, scroll down to the archives and go to July, 2008 or click the label below.

See You at The Pole

The LORD your God is with you, he is mighty to save.He will take great delight in you, he will quiet you with his love, he will rejoice over you with singing." -Zephaniah 3:17

This was the scene this morning as school was begining at Wayland High and schools all across the nation. As stated in the verse above God must have "taken great delight" as students who claim His name continued joining in the circle as they arrived at school to pray for their fellow students, each other and thier school. What a great way to start the day!
