We as a people of faith and a church family need to respond together and in unity to be relevant to each other, our community, and the neighborhoods in which we live. How can we love our neighbor? How can we shine in the lives of others? Let's figure this out and respond, utilizing what God has given us to be a blessing to others. The Lord be with you! I invite you to be a part of a conversation, Wednesday, April 15, 7 PM via Zoom. Details are forthcoming. The Lord be with you!

Virtual Bulletin Board
In an effort to build connectivity and communication, we have created a Calvary Community Bulletin Board, where we can communicate needs and respond to them via email without flooding email inboxes. Just click the link below.
I found some Holy Week activities your family might enjoy doing at home:


Conversations, especially those of a spiritual nature, are life-shaping! Here are some starters for your use at the dinner table or bedtime

  • Share a wow (a joy) and a pow ( a concern) of your day.
  • Tell me a God-sighting (God working through people or circumstances that blesses you) you had today.
