ABOUT
CALVARY CHURCH
GET TO KNOW US
WHAT IS A CRC CHURCH?
CRC means our church is apart of the Christian Reformed Church of North America.
What does that mean?
We call ourselves Christian because we are followers of Jesus Christ. We believe that Jesus was the Son of God and that he is the center of human history.
Our Beliefs, The Bible, Daily Devotional
We’re called Reformed because we grow on a branch of the church tree that emerged from the Protestant Reformation in sixteenth-century Europe.
We’re a Church because we believe God has called us together to be a people who belong to him and live for him.
North America tells you where we are situated; but it also tells you we’re connected with other Reformed denominations in other places around the globe.
List of Ministries, News
Our emblem is the cross in a triangle.
The triangle represents the Trinity, our belief in the one God we know as three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. The cross symbolizes our belief in Jesus Christ's sacrificial death for our salvation.

TESTIMONIALS COMING SOON
If a suit and tie / dress feels right to you, you won't be the only one wearing one. If casual clothes are more your style, you'll fit in too. Here at Calvary, we want everyone to feel welcome. Come as you are, we are glad to have you!
We have ample parking at the rear and sides of the church building.
Accessible parking spaces are available near the main entrance on the side.
If needed, feel free to drop off passengers before parking your vehicle.
Unfortunately, Calvary is not easily accessible by bus. If you would like to attend church please reach out to us via the contact form. We would love for you to attend and we may be able to help arrange a ride for you from a near transit!
Calvary strives to be as accessible as possible.
We have an elevator, located in the hallway to the left of the bottom of the stairs to access the sanctuary. Someone will be there to assist you using the elevator.
There are also two accessible washrooms for convenience. One is located near the South entrance to the sanctuary and another near the main bathrooms in the fellowship hall.
Hearing aid devices can also be obtained from the Sound and Projection volunteers at the back of the sanctuary if needed.
Calvary uses a projection screen to display music and readings. Feel free to sit closer to the front if you have trouble seeing. We also have large print bulletins and music books for those who would like them.
If there is a chance we were not able to meet your accesibility needs, please reach out as we want everyone to feel welcome and comfortable.
Our Sunday church service begins at 10:00AM so please give yourself enough time to settle in. There is no assigned seating so please feel free to sit where you feel comfortable.
Refreshments and coffee are available in the fellowship hall to enjoy following the service.
Offerings are collected during the service and details about what the offering is for can be found in the bulletin, on the projection screen during the service, or by looking through our offering schedule here. Please do not feel obligated to give but you are always welcome too.
Music at Calvary is a blend of contemporary and traditional worship styles. Use of the overhead projection screen allows for songs and responsive readings to be viewed by all; for those who prefer to have the music, song books are available. Be sure to ask the sound technicians where they can be found.
Calvary wants to make you and your children feel welcome.
Child Care
We have both infant and toddler care rooms located near the sanctuary. Volunteers are available every Sunday to provide childcare.
Childrens Message
Most Sunday mornings, as a part of the Sunday service, children aged 3-9, and their parents are invited to the front of the sanctuary for a short and sweet children's message catered just for them. Afterwards the children are invited to Sunday school.
Sunday School/Church School
Ages 3-9 leave for classes after the Children's Message. Classes are lead by volunteer teachers and helpers. Although every class is different, most include a Bible story, craft, snack, singing songs and free-play. Classes are geared to the age groups.
Ages 10-14 leave for classes during the first song after the sermon/message. Classes are lead by volunteer teachers. Although every class is different, most include a time of prayer, a Bible reading and lesson, activity related to the lesson, and fellowship. Classes are geared to the age groups and encourage our youth to build their faith and friendships.
Calvary also hosts a GEMS group, Cadets group and youth group throughout the week. New members are always welcome!
