Previous study topics have included: change, community, the Sabbath, Godly leadership, racial inequality, Heaven, gossip, angels and demons, wrestling with God, Bible translations, comparative religion, church/state, and mercy.

Join us for an in-depth study of Colossians, led by Rev. Dr. David Smith. The apostle Paul wrote to the church in Colossae to fortify it against false teachers; in his epistle he shows the superiority of Christ over all human philosophies and traditions, and writes of Christ’s deity.

pray-ers for peace
PRAYER GROUP | You're invited to join in a prayer group led by St. Paul's member and LCMS deaconess Gayle Truesdell; although held at Mount Calvary, St. Paul's members are warmly welcomed to attend. Deaconess Truesdell shares, "As Christians, we struggle to find our way through these difficult times. What can we do to make things better? I believe that prayer — fervent and faithful — is our greatest tool for peace right now."
1st & 3rd WEDNESDAYS AT 1:00pm
LOCATION:
Mount Calvary Lutheran Church
9321 Litzsinger Road, 63144.
Conference room
The prayer group will start with a short devotion about prayer and then join together to pray for our nation’s elected leaders, appointed leaders, unity, civil discussions, consensus on national purposes, tolerance, equal justice, non-violence or any issues which might arise in the future.
The prayer group is not a forum for political debate; no one should come intending to argue for any particular viewpoint. We come to kneel before our Lord.
