Mount Calvary Lutheran Church Announcements
Lutheran Women’s Missionary League (LWML) – Did you know that Lutheran Women’s Missionary League mite boxes go towards mission projects locally, in our district, and nationwide? This biennium’s project of our zone goes to OUR pregnancy resource center right here in Lancaster, A Woman’s Concern, showing love and care to mothers and fathers in our area. You don’t need to be an LWML member or a woman to participate! (Pastor Seifferlein has his own box on his dresser at home.) Mite boxes are available on the table in the narthex. After they are filled with your change, you may put them in the collection box where they are counted and sent to our zone. You make a change with your change!

July 9 Adult Bible Class – We will study Romans chapter 3. Paul moves from the problem—universal human unrighteousness and condemnation under the law—to the solution—the righteousness of Jesus Christ who fulfilled the law of God, and whose righteousness is given by God the Father as a free gift to those who have faith in His Son. An audio recording of the class can be listened to here:
July 16 Worship & Bible Class
Psalm 119:97 says, “Oh how I love your law! It is my meditation all the day.”This Sunday we will sing the law as we sing Martin Luther’s hymn on the ten commandments, we will hear the law as the commandments are read to us from Exodus 20, and we will consider the law as we listen to Jesus’ preaching on the commandments in Matthew 5 as he spoke to the people in the Sermon on the Mount. We pray that God would increase in us true religion that is centered on Christ and what He has done for us and that He would graft into our hearts a love and fear of His name! You may prepare by reading the Propers of the day.
Old Testament: Exodus 20:1-17
Psalm: Psalm 19:1-10
Epistle: Romans 6:3-11
Gospel: Matthew 5:20-26
In Adult Bible Class we will study Romans 3 & 4. Having laid out the universal condemnation of all humanity under the law of God, Paul deals with what God did through His Son Jesus to save mankind. Join us in the Evangelism Wing after the Divine Service for a study, a cup of coffee, and some conversation with your brothers and sisters in Christ.
Mike and Judy Wood and Barb Meier drove their cars in a car parade at Neffsville Nursing and Rehab on July 5. Nancy Marshall rode along with Barb, and Nancy and Ron Stiegler helped to bring out the residents to view the parade. Thank you to all who participated!
