Our Leadership

John Norton accepted Christ at 10 years old with the help of his parents after a choir practice in the children’s program at Calvary. Years later as a high school senior, he rededicated his life to Christ, realizing that what be had been taught over the previous 18 years would only be meaningful if he lived it out in a real way in day-to-day life. From that point it’s been a continual journey of learning to be like Jesus in every situation God has placed him.

At age two, John showed up at Calvary, with a little help from his parents. Since that time, he has had the privilege to grow up at Calvary and raise his own family attending here for 59 years. The ministry opportunities John has participated in have ranged from leading 4th grade, junior high and high school ministry, college house group ministry, multiple short term mission trips, small group leadership and mentoring/discipling. He also has served on various ministry teams at Calvary as well as the Elder board from ’04-’10 and ’16-’22.

John and his wife Cathy own a small marketing and graphic design company, Fluid Communications. God has graciously allowed them to serve a variety of clients for 23 years and given them the opportunity and flexibility to be engaged in the lives of young people as a benefit of being self-employed. Cathy and John have been married for 38 years. They have been blessed with six amazing kids, Molly & Tony Jones, Sarah & Ben Harris, and West & Abby Norton as well as six precious grandchildren.
