During the boom, you couldn't move for free calendars around Christmas time: oil companies, banks, Chinese restaurants, everyone was giving them out. Not any more though - free calendars have become as rare as hen's teeth. However, despite the recession, we are giving away five hundred 2013 calendars absolutely free to households in Castlebar. Each full-colour calendar features beautiful images and every month features a verse from the bible and a thought-provoking reflection.

These calendars are a gift from Calvary Church Castlebar. We are a group of non-denominational Christians living in Castlebar, and in January we will be starting bible discussion evenings for anyone who is interested in finding out more about the bible. We have a limited number of calendars available to readers of castlebar.ie. To receive one, please email us at calvarychurchcastlebar@gmail.com and we would be happy to drop one round.
