From Pastor Dean

I am grateful for the time that Christine & I were able to serve at Calvary. And I am thankful that God has given my friend Pastor Jay Carroll as the Transition Pastor this summer. Jay’s love for the Lord is infectious, and he trusts God fully. He now leads the search team and Consistory as they continue to pray for Calvary’s next pastor.

God bless you Jay Carroll, and the elders and deacons!
