Week of 5/5/25

MAY ESLR: This month’s ESLR is “Trained Ambassadors”. Trained Ambassadors are students who employ effective verbal and written communication skills to clearly express ideas, truths, and convictions as spirit-filled representatives of the gospel of Jesus Christ. (2 Corinthians 5:20) “Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ’s behalf, be reconciled to God.”

DAILY PORTION: Calvary Chapel Downey invites you to join us as we follow the Daily Portion Bible Reading Plan. When we read our bibles most days of the week, even for a short period of time, we open ourselves up to the opportunity of the Scripture’s transformative power in many areas of our lives.

This week’s Daily Portion:

  • 5/5/25: 2 Kings 7-9…….…..1 Corinthians 15-16

  • 5/6/25: 2 Kings 10-12….…..2 Corinthians 1-3
