To ALL the Youth of Mt. Calvary,
Our theme for the year in Youth Ministry and for this Annual Youth Daycelebration is, “Empowered and Unashamed”, from Romans 1:16a. Wehave been working, collectively, all year to help each of you to know that
from the beginning of time, God has loved you, anointed you, and empowered you to do greatthings. In fact, He said, “Greater things than these shall you do in my name…”
If you get nothing else out of this time here today, please try to leave with the understanding thatoutside of God, you can do nothing, but you can do all things through Christ who is yourstrength. I ask nothing more of you than simply this, “TRY GOD FOR YOURSELF, FIND OUTWHAT IT MEANS TO HAVE GOD IN YOUR LIFE”. Don’t believe the hype, get with God firsthand. God is not man, He is not shy, nor is He bashful. He is not afraid of you, nor is He afraidto speak with you. He will not lie to you or deceive you. He just wants to love you and have youlove him back! And you cannot do that if you are timid, afraid, ashamed, or unwilling to knowGod for yourself. God rewards those who diligently seek him!
God did not give you a spirit of fear, but of POWER and a sound mind! A mind to think and touse that POWER! If you know that God has empowered you, then you must also know thatwhen things get tough, and you don’t know what to do, you can lean and depend on him. Yourfather loves you with an uncompromising love, an unconditional love, an all - encompassinglove. Tell him your thoughts, fears, and concerns; he cares for you, he will see you through!
Each of you is ending a chapter in your lives and starting another, whether it is going from onegrade to another, elementary school to middle school, from middle school to high school, fromhigh school to college, from undergrad to postgraduate work, or straight to the workforce. Itreally does not matter what the change is; God wants you to know that amid constant change inyour world, he will always be CONSTANT. He said, “I am the Lord your God and I changeNOT”!
Wherever you go, whatever you do, keep God with you. Stay connected with him, communewith him, communicate with him, and experience him. Why? Because if you do, then you willknow the POWER that is our Lord, and as you walk in that power you will never be ashamed ofHim, or who you are becoming in Him!
I am so grateful for God allowing me the opportunity to serve you. Know that I love you, yourfamily and your church families love you, but above all know that the Lord our God the creator ofall heaven and earth, LOVES YOU! Be Blessed!
Your servant, His son!

We, the church family, seek to enhance the spiritual growth of our families, children, adults, and seniorsthrough a commitment to supportive and nurturing ministries and activities which are Christ centered butthat minister to the whole person, spirit, mind and body. Proverbs 22:6
Strong Christian families are essential to the furthering of the gospel. Children are our gifts from
God, and we have the responsibility to enrich their lives with the proper Christian ethics.
Honor your father and mother. Then you will live a long, full life in the land of the Lord
your God is giving you. (Exodus 20:12)
Show respect for the elderly. (James 2:13)
Listen my son, to your father’s instruction and do not forsake your mother’s teachings.
(Proverbs 1:18)
A wise man brings joy to his family, but a foolish man despises his mother.
(Proverbs 15:20)
Early and continually inviting our children to accept the ways of Christ will help them not only in
their childhood years but remain a guiding force during their adulthood. Individual families and
the church have the responsibility to provide social activities and programs for our youth and
young adults. We cannot afford to leave our children as daily targets of the unhealthy, worldly
forces. We must lead them to Christ at an early age. However, it is important for us to exemplify
the ideals of Christianity in our daily lives.

FROM THE EVANGELISM MINISTRY
During the next few weeks the Evangelism Ministry will present a series on Questions and
Objections. [The primary reference is “The Evidence Bible,” Bridge-Logos, Gainesville, Florida,
Publisher.] This series will consist of questions the evangelist could encounter while witnessing.
Some of the questions we will be exploring are: Why are there so many denominations? Why does
God allow evil? Will people who have never heard about Jesus go to hell? Today’s question is:
“Why are there so many denominations?”
In the early 1500s, a German monk named Martin Luther was so conscious of his sins that he spent
up to six hours in the confessional. Through study of the Scriptures he found that salvation didn’t
come through anything he did, but simply through trusting in the finished work of the cross of Jesus
Christ. He listed the contradictions between what the Scriptures said and what his church taught, and
nailed his “95 Theses,” to the church door in Wittenberg, Germany.
Martin Luther became the first to “protest” against the Roman church, and thus he became the father
of the Protestant church. Since that split, there have been many disagreements about how much
water one should baptize with, how to sing what and why, who should govern who, etc., causing
thousands of splinter groups. Many of these groups are convinced that they alone are right. These
have become known as Protestant ‘denominations.” Despite the confusion, these churches
subscribe to certain foundational beliefs such as the deity, death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus
Christ. The Bible says, “…the foundation of God stands sure, having this seal, The Lord knows them
that are his…” (2 Timothy 2:19).
Thomas Jefferson once wrote of a preacher, Richard Mote, who “exclaimed aloud to his congregation
that he did not believe there was a Quaker, Presbyterian, Methodist, or Baptist in heaven, having
paused to give his hearers time to stare and to wonder. He added that, in heaven, God knew no
distinctions.”
The Evangelism Ministry Team Meetings are open to all, and the next meetingwill be June 21, 2012.
