For those of you that attend Calvary of Flint.... we will soon be MOVING to another facility.

Valley Christian Academy (the school we meet in) is CLOSING. Here is the letter the principal of the school sent out this morning:

“Dear Faithful Supporters of Valley Christian Academy:

It is with deeply saddened hearts that the Board of Trustees of Valley Christian Academy must announce our plans to close the school for the 2009/2010 school year.

It is the school’s mission to glorify God in all that we do. Both current and past board members have endeavored to do just that even as the economic condition of the region has deteriorated beyond belief.

Despite heroic efforts by parents, staff and administrators, the declining enrollment and increasing costs of operation have placed the school in a financially paralyzing position. To open the school again would only exacerbate the problem - not help it.

Our prayers continue to be with each family and each student as we all work through God’s plans for our futures.”

While this is sad to us, we are certain that our KING has gone before us in this... it did NOT catch Him off guard. And actually it didn’t really catch us off guard either....We have heard Him leading us to look for another place for some time. So please pray with us for God's direction and leading. For wisdom in making decisions and that His name would be held up for all to see. We will make further announcements as information becomes available.

One last note.... a very important one.... don't miss it.... we are NOT for ANY REASON canceling church.... so we will see you Sunday's and Thursday's at VCA until further notice.

May God get the glory due His Holy name in it all!

Join us tomorrow (Sunday August 16) for this year’s baptism.

Starts at 1pm and is located at the Linden County Park (Clover Beach) in Linden. Lunch is provided (free of charge) and the baptism will follow lunch. Bring the swim suits and sand toys for the kids too as there’s swimming in the lake and plenty of sand for frisbee/football ect...

Who can be baptized? Anyone who believes in the Lord Jesus Christ as their personal Savior and desires to announce that to the world openly and publically.... can be. There is no sign up needed, just come on out! Feel free to invite your family and friends to celebrate with us!

Grace and Peace in him alone....

Here’s a map to ge there...

Well it’s official, we have finally competed the affiliation process with Calvary Chapel!!! The affiliation process was important to us for three simple reasons...

1. People can find us on the main Calvary Chapel website (www.calvarychapel.com)

2. As a Calvary Chapel affiliate, taking the Calvary Chapel name.... people know what they are going to get when they show up to our church. A strong emphasis on teaching the Word of God systematically and thoroughly, the emphasis on the person and work of the Holy Spirit and His influence upon the Church, The Worship of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit within our services.

They know that we are in agreement to the Calvary “disitinctives” and are “on record” as such.

3. The accountability and prayer support it affords us with other Calvary Chapel churches.

It’s a blessing to see it complete!!

Thursday nights have a new location! Please come and join us (same time 7 pm) for our midweek study at our new home!!! The new address is 5309 Olde Saybrooke Ct., Grand Blanc, MI 48439

or Just check out this handy map.... We hope to see you this Thursday night at 7pm!!!
