PROPOSED REVISION TO CALVARY BAPTIST CHURCH CONSTITUTION

We will be voting on the change below at the Annual Business meeting Sunday, February 21st, 2010

CONSTITUTION

Section IV   STATEMENT OF FAITH

The following is an addition:

J. MARRIAGE AND FAMILY: 

We believe that marriage was ordained by God at creation as the sacred union

of one man and one woman.  All sexual relations must therefore be reserved

for that union.  Christian marriage is a representative of Christ's

relationship to His church.  We also believe that children are a blessing

from the Lord.  Thus all human life is sacred and worthy of protection from

the moment of conception.  Genesis 1:26-28; 2:24; Psalm 127 & 128;

139:13-16; Matthew 19:1-10; 1 Corinthians 6:9-11; Ephesians 5:22-33; Hebrews

13:4

Also: 

New Elder to be Affirmed:  Jim Lewis

We will be voting on the recommended Elder for a three year term.
