At-Risk Meeting
Every 3rd Sunday of the Month
Sunday, July 19, 2026
3:00pm-5:00pm
Agape Room
Our next At-Risk meeting is on Sunday, July 19th, from 3:00-5:00pm in the Agape Room. We will be showing a video of a panel discussion on the future of U.S. Human Trafficking policies. The video highlights former Ambassador John Cotton Richmond, along with 5 other previous U.S. Ambassadors. The panel took place at a Law School in Washington D.C. It's an educational, informative, and eye-opening discussion. Please consider joining us to watch and discuss it afterwards.
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.
