Knowing Christ...
Making Him Known
At Calvary Community Church,
we are committed to loving God and passionately reaching into the world with the truth of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, by encouraging one another to know Him and serve Him.
Jesus... Our Heritage and Our Hope
For more than a hundred years, men, women, and children have given their time, talents, energy, and resources to ensure the ongoing ministry of Calvary Community Church - and countless souls have been won through those who have ministered here.
In 2021, we will celebrate our centennial, remembering that our heritage and our hope is Jesus.

Whoever you are and whatever you are going through, you are important to God and to us. God never intended for us to walk life's journey alone. At Calvary Community Church, we are family. We seek to have God reveal Himself in every situation as we journey together. Our goal is that each of us will engage with God in such a way that His love and the love of His Son overwhelm us and change us into the people He wants us to be!
