We are currently in Moffett, OK where a historic flood damaged every home and building from major rains that happened upriver this summer. We're rebuilding 3 homes and also helping others as we can, trusting The LORD to help us keep our commitments. Unfortunately we've struggled to get volunteers, even locals to help us, which is truly sad. We're set up to handle volunteers so if you're interested in learning more about joining us, click here. There is also a volunteer availability calendar on that page. If you're interested in financially supporting Calvary Relief, click here.

Please pray that wherever we are and whatever we do, we'd be diligent as we share the love of Jesus with those around us in a tangible way. Please remember to keep us in your prayers and especially that we'd grow in our relationship with The LORD and draw others to Him in all we say and do! Curt & Mary Jo

In the beginning God ( Elohim ) created [by forming from nothing] the heavens and the earth.— Genesis 1:1 AMP

In the beginning, God. The word used for God here in the original Hebrew is Elohim. Elohim is the plural form of God, in other words, more than one. In Genesis 1:2 it says that The Spirit of God was moving over the earth. And in John 1:1-18 we’re told that Jesus is The Word. He has co-existed forever with The LORD. He spoke everything into existence. Nothing that was made was made without Him. (Colossians 1:16-17) It was The LORD God, The Holy Spirit, along with The Word, Jesus, who created everything!

Every year many in the world celebrate Earth Day and some now celebrate it for a week. Personally, I celebrate The One Who created the earth every day, as we all should!

That said, I see nothing wrong with talking about taking care of the earth while we’re here. As Christians we are to be good stewards of all that God created and has given us temporary possession of! The LORD set us up to be over the earth and to take care of it. It’s NOT the other way around! (Genesis 1:26, Genesis 1:28, Psalm 115:16)

Everything we see, everything we have, everything, needs to be taken care of by us as we “rule” over everything on the earth! Remember that we’re to do all we do as unto The LORD, and this includes taking care of everything! (Colossians 3:23)

So go ahead and celebrate the earth, but remember the earth is NOT to be worshipped, it was created by The LORD for us to enjoy and rule over and He is the One that we are to worship all the days of our lives here on the earth that He created!

Happy "take care of the earth that God has created and given to us" day/week/life!!

Please don't hesitate to reach out to us with any questions, prayer requests, etc. We'd love to pray with and for you and to the best of our ability answer any questions you may have soley using God's Word!

Love y’all and LORD Bless,

I encourage you to click, read, study and even memorize these passages for yourself and NOT to just not just take my word for it. (Psalm 119)
