Weekly Portraits of Calvary Life
And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered. And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn. Luke 2:6-7
And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. John 1:14
Praise God for sending the Savior! Merry Christmas!

Weekly Portraits of Calvary Life
On Friday, December 7, the Calvary Music Department presented “An Old Time Family Christmas” concert. Faculty members, Dr. Haekyung An and Un Chong Christopher, started the program by singing “He Shall Feed His Flock” and “Come Unto Him” from Handel’s Messiah. Kristin Thurlby played her oboe as a guest artist, and several students played instrumental pieces as well. A few students performed solos, and lux voces, the new traveling music team, was also part of the program. The Chorale sang Candle Light Carol, Gesu Bambino, and Joy to the World. The Calvary Chamber Singers performed three songs on their own and then joined the Chorale and audience to close the concert with Christmas carols. The performance took place at Blue River Bible Church and was enjoyed by a large crowd.

Weekly Portraits of Calvary Life
A true portrait of Calvary life this week wouldn’t be accurate without mentioning “The Blizzard.” Winter Storm Bruce hit Kansas City on Sunday, November 25, the day many students, faculty, and staff were returning from Thanksgiving break. Because of the treacherous driving conditions, classes were canceled and offices closed on Monday and Tuesday. However, our maintenance team was hard at work clearing campus roads and sidewalks. Thankfully temperatures rose above freezing on Wednesday, and thawing has begun!

In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. I Thessalonians 5:18
Praise the Lord! Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good!
For His mercy endures forever. Psalm 106:1
