Pet Memorial Service
May 18, 12:30 p.m.
In continued recognition of the significant role our pets play in our lives and the loss we feel when a pet dies, Calvary will offer a pet memorial service open to anyone who grieves the loss of a beloved pet. Attendees are encouraged to bring a memento of their pet(s) - a collar, picture, or their ashes - to the service, and will be invited to lay it on the altar in memory of their pet(s) for the duration of the service. Prayers, readings, and poems will be offered in memory of all pets who gave us love unconditionally and remain forever in our hearts. Light refreshments will follow the service.

Common Ground:
A Long Walk to Water
June 22, 12:15 p.m.
The speaker for the next Common Ground event will be Salva Dut, who will relate his story as one of the Lost Boys of Sudan. At age 11, Mr. Dut was one of about 20,000 boys displaced by a brutal civil war. He endured loneliness, hunger and thirst, attacks by armed rebels as well as wild animals. The book A Long Walk to Water by Linda Sue Park tells his story. All are welcome to this free program to hear his inspiring message. Participants will have the opportunity to purchase the book and to make an offering to the nonprofit Mr. Dut founded, "Water for South Sudan, Inc."
