Another Special Life in Christ
These testimony lives are not stories of "role models". Jesus is the
role model!
These are lives wonderfully touched & changed by Jesus!

Preacher:
Pastor Chuck Smith (1927-2013, buried HERE) was minding his own business in
southern California one day in the 1960's when a rough-looking hippie biker-couple pulled up
to ask a question, "We are Christian and want to go to a church; but we don't look good
enough to go into any church we've seen. Can we come to your church?" Chuck thought a minute
and said, "If I invite you to my church, I don't know how long I'll be there. But as long as
I AM there, you are welcome to come!" Calvary Chapel reached out to the community; and God
blessed the ministry of this church, making it a phenomenal magnet to Jesus as it exploded in
growth from less than a thousand members then to over 15,000 in a network of daughter
congregations in 1998.

acceptance of Jesus as your savior. Are you tired of life as it now is for you? He will
accept you just as you are right this second! Consider accepting Jesus now
