Sunday, September 21, 2025
3:00pm-5:00pm
Agape Room
We will be watching a video, actually, a recorded zoom meeting, led by John Cotton Richmond, about understanding the Global Scam Centers Crisis. The conversation featured local leaders on the Thai-Myanmar border, renowned academic researchers and victim service providers. The panel explored the realities of scam compounds, government engagement, the repatriation process, and the challenges facing survivors. Horrifying, enlightening, and challenging, but provides valuable insight into this huge issue. Hope you can join us!
There are many injustices in the world today and here at Calvary Murrieta we desire to “speak up" for those who can’t speak for themselves and ensure justice for those being crushed. There are many avenues to do this, so we seek ways to help the victims, as well as find ways to help prevent them from becoming one. At Risk meetings is one of those avenues.

Adopt-A-Verse
Can you imagine not having the ability to learn about Jesus through reading His Word because your language has no Bible translation? This is the current situation for the Hanang people group in Asia. We have the opportunity to help provide financially to get the Bible translated into their language. For just $35 a verse, the Hanang people can have the Bible translated into their own heart language.
The Seed Company's current project goal for the Hanang people group, is to have the entire books of Exodus, Matthew, John, and Acts translated, then audio recorded and distributed on SD cards. This process takes a lot of time and effort from everyone in the field. Your donation can help get Bible verses through the arduous process of first drafts, team checks, comprehension testings, back translations, consultant checks, and the final MP3 audio recordings for use on SD cards for distribution. These books will help strengthen the young church that is growing among the Hanang people group.
