A letter from our Pastor
I would personally like to thank you for visiting Green Lake Calvary Church’s website! We consider it a great honor and responsibility to minister to those God brings our way.
Do you ever feel like you’re going through life alone? Do you want a place to belong? Come to GLCC to…
-
Find encouragement when you’re worn out.
-
Receive healing when you’re broken.
-
Get help when you feel defeated.
-
Find real connection, community, and friendship.
The church is God’s way of connecting us, not only to Him, but to one another. At GLCC, we support one another through whatever life brings. We love and accept people today as God loves and accepts us, sharing God’s amazing grace.
Our desire is to “Know the Grace of Jesus, and Show the Grace of Jesus.” Our ministry purpose could be summarized in Christ’s purpose statement for us- to “make disciples” (Matthew 28:18-20). To that end, we seek to help everyone become rooted and growing in Christ. We proclaim salvation through Jesus Christ and desire to lead people to a deep and lasting relationship with God and with each other.
As a ministry, we focus on these core concepts as we represent Christ in our communities. What a great privilege we have, to join God in this corner of His work.
As you explore our website, I pray you will gain a better understanding of who we are as a church family, a greater understanding of what God is doing in your life, and direction as to whether God would have you come and grow with our family. Come be with people who can relate and who care, because hope and grace are here! Join us this Sunday!
Christ’s Servant and Yours,
Mark Smith

Songs of Hope
Songs are powerful! I listened to a song a couple weeks ago, a song I hadn’t heard in nearly forty years. Amazing! I remembered the tune, and most of the words came back to my mind as well. Now a days not much comes back to my mind, but this music was powerful enough to pull my emotion out of my past and give me hope today!
Songs give us hope! Often music expresses the heart. And in our hearts, you will find joy, anger, gratitude, sadness, along with hope! You can probably remember a song used by God to encourage you from the past. This is the power of older hymns and current worship music. Often the older generation is so passionate about their music because God used those words and tunes to shape their hope in God. And often the younger generation is so passionate about their music for the same reasons. They hear a song on the radio or Spotify and it offers them an oasis in this dessert world.
In the Bible God has provided us with some incredible music to give us hope. We call them, the Psalms! The largest book in the Bible! For much of the summer we will ask God to use the songs from His Word to give us hope in our hopeless world. If you find yourself losing hope, join us as we find hope in God together.
Singing with you,
Pastor Mark
