Each month, Mount Calvary members provide donations to support the men of Good Samaritan Services in Ephrata. An article was recently published in The Ephrata Review titled “Ministry of faith and finding hope,” which talks about the work of Floyd Shirk, the ‘house father’ at Good Samaritan Services.

The Holy Trinity Service
Holy Trinity Sunday ends the festival or first half of the church year. Having celebrated Advent, Christmas, Epiphany, Lent, Easter, and Pentecost, the church rejoices in one last grand round of celebration to the Holy Trinity, true God, the Father who created and made us, the Son who redeems us, and the Spirit who makes us a home in the Holy Christian Church and will raise up our bodies on the last day. Join us as we speak the Athanasian Creed and as we sing many hymns in praise to the Holy Trinity.
“Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty!
Early in the morning our song shall rise to Thee;
Holy, holy, holy, merciful and mighty!
God in three persons, blessed Trinity! ” Text: Public domain
