ALPHA YOUTH SERIES!

Wednesdays in April + May | 7:00-8:30pm
The Calvary Church Patio

Alpha Youth is a great opportunity to explore the Christian faith in a friendly, open, and informal environment. We'll be enjoying dinner, games, and a great discussion! By fostering curiosity and connection, Alpha Youth helps cultivate a vibrant spiritual community that inspires growth, encourages leadership, and strengthens faith among the next generation. 

Our goal is to create a fun, comfortable, and inviting atmosphere for students, which naturally includes good food, fun games, cool prizes, and super kind people. If you want to help make Alpha Youth an awesome experience for new students please consider supporting us by praying, serving, or donating food and prizes. Every little bit helps. This week we are looking for 16 Pizzaz. Let Pastor Josh know if you can help out! We appreciate YOU!

Help Make Alpha Awesome!

 

 

Spot Sundays!

Sundays | 11:00am - 12:15pm
The Student Underground

When does Middle School meet on Sunday?
The Spot ONLY meets at 11:00am on Sunday mornings in The Underground for teaching, worship, and games. We really value bringing middle school students together to facilitate new friendships, provide deeper connections, and learn how to walk like Jesus. Let's connect on Sundays at Calvary!

What do we do during the 9:00am Service? 
We want our middle school students to be a part of worship in the main service as part of the body of Christ. You can sit with your family or with Pastor Josh on the right-hand side of the Worship Center (a few rows behind the ASL section). Another great option is to serve with younger kids at Calvary at 9:00am. Find out more here!

 

 

Spot Teaching Series!

Talk is ____ -  A Study of the Book of James

This series is a reminder for students to reflect God’s glory by acting on the faith they profess. Honoring the Lord with our hearts, minds, and words is only the first step in our journey.  Real faith moves us toward loving and compassionate acts that change the world around us. The book of James, a letter that serves as a how-to manual for the Christian life. When we deal with trials, disagreements, and lack of faith, James teaches us that we can still have joy in the midst of our circumstances. Don’t forget to Bring Your Bibles!
