Do you want to know some great news for your kids? We have some exciting information for elementary age children on Sunday mornings during the 10:15 AM worship service at Calvary!
- Beginning Sunday, June 6th, we will offer Children's Church for the 4th-6th grades, as well as the 1st-3rd grades and 4's & 5's.
- 4's & 5's will begin with our child check-in and then go directly to their classroom.
- All 1st-6th grade students (grades this past school year) will be seated with their parents in the worship service to start. You do not need to complete the check-in for any elementary age students.
- Both groups, 1st-3rd and 4th-6th grades, will be dismissed during the final congregational song before the sermon when they are directed to.
- Our 4th-6th grades will be studying the Peacemaker material on relationships and conflict resolution.
- On Communion Sunday each month, all elementary students will come back to sit with their parents for the Communion at the end of the service.
- Students may be picked up after the service down the hallway in Room 205 (1st-3rd) and 203 (4th-6th).
We are excited about this opportunity for boys and girls to worship and learn on Sunday mornings! If you have any questions, please send us a message 😁 Hope to see you there!

Dear Friends,

A pastor called us a few days ago saying,

“Our church is closed. Kids are stuck home and going crazy. Can you please send us a viewing link to The Pilgrim’s Progress?!?”

Of course, our answer to requests like these is always, YES. And we were planning on releasing another Online Pilgrim’s Event for Easter (the one-year anniversary of its theatrical release) but we thought, people need this now.

So today I am very happy to announce that you can now watch The Pilgrim’s Progress online for free. Please forward this email to your family, friends, and even your entire church membership!
I am very happy to announce that you can now watch The Pilgrim’s Progress online for free.
Please Forward This Email to Your Family and Friends!
Simply use the link below, register your email address, and you will have unlimited access to The Pilgrim’s Progress animated movie through April 30th!

Over the next few weeks, we will also be adding viewings in many of the languages that we have translated, making this a global event. We will email announcements of the languages as soon as they are available.

We are also offering a free Pilgrim’s DVD and Collector’s Coin for anyone who supports the ministry of RevelationMedia on this special viewing page. So far, we have been able to complete translations in 12 languages with more in production. And the film is always free to missionaries.

Look for these first eight languages to be loaded on the viewing site soon…

Spanish Korean
Farsi Mandarin
Bengali Urdu
Tamil Nepali

While we were setting up the viewing page, I was asked if I was violating any distribution agreement by offering a free viewing. The answer is no, because we have always kept the rights to the film within the ministry, allowing us to minister to USA families and the global missions community. Our ministry is only funded by your contributions, and as God allows, we will continue to take every opportunity to bless individuals and families with the incredible message of The Pilgrim’s Progress.

Thank you for your support and prayers and enjoy the film!
