Silent Sky
Last weekend our Theatre Arts Department presented the play, Silent Sky. They brought to life the account of Henrietta Leavitt, who discovered how to measure the universe without ever looking through a telescope. Junior Christy Stone played Henrietta and also designed the set for the production. The small cast of five students and large crew did a marvelous job taking us back to the early 1900s and telling a little-known story.

Please pray for safety and a time of spiritual and professional growth through this experience.

Warrior Soccer
Calvary’s soccer team earned their first win of the season last week! They defeated Central Christian College of the Bible by a score of 4-2 with goals from Noah Wittenbach, Mark Rodenberg, and Kameron Wiebe. Their next game is at home on Saturday, October 8. If you would like to come cheer on the team, be advised that the homes games this season are being played at 613 Mill Street in Belton, Missouri. I know Coach Daniel Nichols and the players would appreciate your support!

Fall Work Day
![slc-work-day](https://i0.wp.com/www.calvary.edu/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/SLC-work-day.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&ssl=1)
Students work to beautify the area around the new Student Life Center.
Now that the students are settling into college life, it is nice to take a day off from brain work to do some manual labor. On Tuesday students were assigned to various jobs around campus, with a majority of the work being done inside and outside the new Student Life Center. If you have not heard about Calvary’s new acquisition, click here to read more about it. The building was formerly Turner’s German-American Hall, and it is just south of Calvary’s softball field near Eagle’s Landing Golf Course. If you would like a sneak peek at the space before it is renovated, make reservations to attend the President’s Dinner next week.
