Fa STEWARDING
GOD’S GRACE
As God has grown Calvary
to more intentionally
extend hospitality to our
neighbors, He has given us the
opportunity to welcome many
non-native English speakers
into our church family. Many
are refugees who have resettled
in West Michigan after fleeing
dangerous situations in their
home country. God has
brought the nations to our
doorstep and we have a great
opportunity to share the love
of Christ as we come alongside
them in the process of settling
in West Michigan.
Each of you should use whatever gift
you have received to serve others,
as faithful stewards of God’s grace in
its various forms.
1 Peter 4:10
12
The two stories to the right
represent some of the many
volunteers who have used their
gifts and life experiences from
around the world to minister
to these refugees right here
in Grand Rapids. May you be
encouraged to see how God
weaves the threads of our lives
together to provide a tapestry
of love and care for His people.
And may you seek the ways
God is desiring to use you as a
faithful steward in this season.
