A MARITAL AND PARENTAL MINISTRY OF CALVARY CHURCH

The HOME is the CENTER of relational and spiritual growth

This ministry is designed to equip and support people for the development of healthy and biblical homes. We are excited to partner with couples, parents, and families as you grow and move through the different seasons of home life. In this partnership, we hope to provide you with sound biblical resources that will encourage and support your relationships with your spouse and /or children.

Home Field includes the following ministry areas:

• 2/1 Premarital Counseling
• Weddings
• Baby Dedications
• Family Fusion: where kids and their parents go to church
• Workshops (see below)
• Divorce Recovery
• Single Parents
  
• Blended Families

Several times each year we have workshops where parents and married couples gather together for discussion and encouragement. These times offer a place to meet other couples who are experiencing the same joys and struggles as you are in your family relationships. We are excited to partner with couples, parents, families as they grow and move through the different seasons of home life.

UPCOMING WORKSHOPS / EVENTS

Home Field Marriage Workshop

Friday, February 10, 2012 at 7:00pm in Room 301/302

“What’s Love Got to Do with It?” Tina asked a great question. Mysterious, yet tangible; romantic, yet practical; tenacious, yet rewarding—love is an attribute of God built into human relationships to be experienced most deeply in marriage. So what does love have to do with it? Everything! Together we will explore a biblical perspective of love and how to cultivate and express it in our marriages. Whether you are in love, have fallen out of love, or are somewhere in the middle, come and discover more about what love really has to do with it. To register, please contact Deb at x111 or dbarlow@calvary-church.com.

Home Field Resource Center

Have you been looking for a devotional for you and your spouse?

Are you having a tough time figuring out what type of Bible or devotional would be best for your teenager?

Do you need some guidance in navigating the culture of movies, clothing, and music that your children are growing up in? We are excited to announce the Home Field Resource Center that's in our atrium. This area has been designed to give you an opportunity to explore a variety of devotionals, magazines, and videos in order to help you decide which material to purchase. There will also be a list of websites that you can search on your own time that can minister to you and your family. Stop by to view these materials and gather some information to help you decide which resource will benefit you, your marriage, and your family.
