We're Reaching Out!
Reach Out is
a ministry that partners with Federal Way churches, service and
civic organizations and community volunteers to provide shelter
and support services to help homeless men in Federal Way move
toward self-sufficiency. This ministry is now entering its
fourth year, and Calvary is pleased to be a part of it. Check
out the website for
Reach
Out.
The men are sheltered in “host” churches.
Reach Out, a local Federal Way program, recently joined up with
Catholic Community Services of King County to better help area
homeless. Calvary hosts (men sleep at Calvary) on
December 26 - February 29. Calvary provides meals (in our Social Hall)
during the month of January. Find out more about Calvary's
involvement with Reach
Out.
Calvary Adds a New Ministry
The focus is on nurturing folks
within our congregation. Find out more about how this
nurturing is done in the
Nurture Ministry.
Calvary Gets New Coffee Station
We Lutherans love our coffee, so we are excited about
of our new, commercial-grade coffee station. It is located
in the Social Hall. The equipment is able to brew coffee
much faster than we previously were able. The coffee then
flows into portable, insulated containers, or may remain at the
coffee station on elements that electronically keep the coffee
at drinking temperature, instead of simmering down to sludge.
Interested in finding out more

membership at Calvary are currently meeting and will be received
into membership on Sunday, February 19th.
