GET INVOLVED IN MINISTRIES



Sunday School

Bible

Sunday School is the Foundational strategy in a local church for leading people to faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and for building on-mission Christians through open Bible Study groups that engage people in evangelism, discipleship, ministry, fellowship, and worship.

We have Sunday School Classes for all age groups! Bring-a-friend and join us on Sunday!





Music Ministry

Adult Choir presenting Our Christmas Cantata 2006

Calvary's Choir is comprised of many talented men, women and children. The choir plays an important role in our Worship services. Our Music Director is Mrs. Melissa Champy. We are always looking for "new talent" to fill our choir. If you are interested in joining, please see Melissa or any of our gifted choir members.





Brotherhood

Brotherhood

Calvary's Brotherhood is comprised of men with a true desire to serve the Lord. They focus on projects to enhance and better our church, and tackling those urgent special needs that are sure to arise throughout the year. We invite you to take part in this important, as well as rewarding ministry of our church.





Women on Mission

WOM

Calvary's WOM (Women on Mission) is a missions organization for women (ages 18 and up) through which women pray for and give to missions, do missions, learn about missions, grow spiritually toward a missions lifestyle, and participate in the work of the church and the denomination. These women meet the last Wednesday at 7:00 pm of every month. They exist to serve the local church and association. The purpose of all Women on Mission activities is that every person have the opportunity to hear and respond to the gospel.

The "heart" of Women on Mission is to help women create their own missions vision by enabling them to: Recognize their status in Christ (Galatians 4:7, Ephesians 1:3-14); Find an entry point to fulfill Christ’s purpose in their lives (Jeremiah 29:11-13, Romans 8:28); Reflect the highest ideals of Christian living (Ephesians 4:1, 1 Thessalonians 2:8); See their lives as set apart for the gospel (Galatians 1:15-16a, 2 Timothy 1:6-14); Affirm God’s call both individually and corporately (1 Peter 2:9); Reach beyond themselves to a global vision (Acts 1:8, 2:17); Commit to a rewarding missions lifestyle (Colossians 3:12-17, Philemon 6)





Senior Adults

Senior Adults

Our Senior Adults are comprised of men and women ages 55 +. These men and women lend wisdom, stability and other great strengths to our congregation. We fully realize that "older" does not necessarily imply "less active". We seek to meet the needs of senior adults through various ministry and age-appropriate activities. They meet on the second Thursday of each month for lunch at various locations throughout the area. They are a very vital and active part of our fellowship.





Audio/Video Ministry

Audio/Video Crew

In 1993, Calvary started its Audio Ministry with Alan Champy as our Audio Technician. Every Sunday at 12:30 NOON you can tune in to WDOG radio 93.5 FM and hear "Reflections from Calvary." It's a radio progam that has a special song from our choir and last week's sunday message from our morning worship service.

In 1998, Calvary started its Video Ministry with John and Stephanie Stephens as our Video Technicians. Though we are not yet equipped to have our services on television, VHS and DVD copies are available to anyone who wish to watch. Our members deliver copies each week to the sick and shut-ins, who are unable to attend church. For many, this is the only church they see.

Our Audio/Video Ministry has continued to grow through the years, from newer cameras to a new room! In 2001, the church began and finished construction on an Audio/Video Room. The pictures below give a glimpse as how the room appears today. Throughout this ministry, we feel we have been truly blessed to know that our work has helped those who needed to hear God's word.
