Our Thoughts and Prayers are with...

HYMNAL FUND

Mahalo to each of you who have contributed

monies toward purchasing hymnals. So far, Calvary

has received funding to purchase 98 hymnals!

There is still time to purchase hymnals. The

“Hymnal Drive” continues until November 30.The

cost is $30 per hymnal. This includes shipping and

a book plate identifying for whom and by whom the

hymnal is given.

Make your checks payable to Calvary by the Sea. On

the memo line write “hymnals.” Be sure you let Tom

know for whom the hymnal(s) are given

(tom@calvarybythesea.org). Once the order is placed,

the hymnals received, and the plates prepared, there will

be a Service of Dedication to honor these gifts and to

dedicate their use in worship at Calvary by the Sea!
