THE 6:8 PROJECT – ERIE

BACK TO THE 6:8 PROJECT

“He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?” – Micah 6:8

The 6:8 Project is a weekend that we set aside every year to focus on ways we can practice justice and mercy.

Since The 6:8 Project began in 2017, Calvary has packed hundreds of thousands of meals that were sent overseas, we’ve raised funds and awareness about the need for clean drinking water in many parts of the world, and we have helped refugee families as they settle in Colorado. We’ve participated in many other projects that have helped us understand God’s heart for those in need of justice and mercy.

ERIE’S FOCUS THIS YEAR

I Choose You

We are partnering with I Choose You to provide child sponsorship and school scholarships to kids in Uganda. I Choose You has a goal to preach the Gospel of Jesus to the street children of Uganda and to demonstrate the love of God toward them.

Erie UpLink

Calvary is continuing our partnership with Erie UpLink by collecting items to help fill the first few months of their fall Tiger Packs. Tiger Packs are bags of non-perishable, kid-friendly food that is delivered to students in need from Erie schools to supplement children’s diets over the long weekend or holiday break. Erie UpLink has asked us to collect these specific items (expiration date on or after 12/2026).

● Pop-top, Kid-favorite Soup Cans

● Spaghetti-O’s or Raviolis

● Ramen Noodle Bricks

● Mac n Cheese Boxes

● 100% Juice Boxes

Please bring your food items to Calvary on Sunday, May 3. Questions? Contact Kendra Ficek, mrs.kendraficek@gmail.com

The Prophet Micah tells us what good actions God desires; to DO justice, LOVE mercy and WALK humbly with Him. Why does this please Him? Because it reflects His character. Putting Micah 6:8 into action helps us discover God’s heart and our place in His good purposes.
