Support Ministry Fall Classes
Monday evening classes
Calvary Support Ministry classes are open to everyone. Each class explores the spiritual, intellectual, emotional, and physical aspects of life challenges from a biblical perspective. However, our classes are not professional counseling sessions or therapy groups.
Join us or invite a friend — everyone is welcome! Childcare is not provided.
Support Ministry classes meet at Calvary Church. Please register in advance below.

Many people in our world today have experienced “wounds of the heart” or trauma. Our hearts can be wounded when we suddenly lose a loved one or experience betrayal, serious injury, abuse, crime, and many other traumatic events. This series of classes is intended to help people recover from trauma and loss by bringing Scripture to bear on their situations and lives. Cost: $10. The workbook will be provided.
The Potter’s Hands
1st & 3rd Mondays throughout the year
6:30–8:00 PM, Room 1200
Drugs, alcohol, pornography – these are but a few of the “modern plagues” that ruin lives, ruin marriages, lead to anxiety and depression, and even death. Such sins not only rob a person of life but steal the soul. And professing followers of Christ are not immune from the destruction that such things present. In Christ, there is freedom from the bondage of sin. Come and find support, fellowship, encouragement, and accountability.
