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 games, worship, Bible and connection. 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!

PRESSURE!
New Spot Sermon Series - October 2025
This series examines the pressures and anxieties that youth encounter on a daily basis at school, in relationships, at home, or even in the church. “Pressure” seeks to address these anxieties and offer a biblical response. At this stage in life, these pressures are inevitable, so it’s best to discuss them to help us grow closer to God instead of allowing these things to pull us away from him. In doing so, we will understand that in all our anxieties and pressures of life, Christ is our ultimate safe space.
Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Romans 12:2
