A Blog for the leaders at Calvary McAllen

This blog is a place for Lead Pastor Julio to share updates on leadership ideas and developments at Calvary. I encourage feedback and comments as we together seek God's leadership for our church and for His mission.

Should I plan to be there all day?

  
     The Alpha training on May 23 will be from 8:30 AM to 4:00 PM.  We realize this is a whole day commitment.  However, it is important that you plan to attend the entire training.  The training will consist of more than just information.  It will model the group dynamics that are used in the Alpha course.  This is not something that you can just read in a make-up chapter.

     The Alpha course is different from Sunday School classes and ABFs.  It is different from the EQUIP courses we offer.  It is different from the evangelism strategies we have used in the past.  In my opinion this kind of approach to sharing the gospel requires a paradigm shift for those of us that have grown up in evangelical churches utilizing 20th century methods.  For that reason it is very important that we come to this training with open minds, willing hearts and an undivided agenda for the day.

     I realize that asking you for a whole Saturday is a big request.  However I'm convinced that God can use this to bring about renewal to our congregation and a harvest of disciples in God's own time.  So block out May 23 on your calendar and register on line today.  The discount code for Calvary leaders is cbcalpha.
