The Gathering of Believers at Calvary

Throughout the history of the church Christians have gathered for corporate worship; to thank, praise,
pray, hear the Word of God and receive God’s gifts through the sacraments of Baptism and Holy
Communion. We recognize this important rhythm of gathering regularly around Word and sacraments
to birth, nurture, and sustain faith.

At Calvary the sacrament of Holy Communion is celebrated at all worship services the first and third
weekends of each month and at special festival services throughout the year. We practice open
communion and welcome all who believe that Christ is present through the bread and wine and giving
His gifts of forgiveness, life, and salvation.

Our worship opportunities each weekend are:

Saturdays 5:30 pm in the Calvary Chapel: The liturgy and hymnody vary each week with the use
of traditional and more contemporary worship settings. The scripture and sermon at Saturday evening
chapel is consistent at all weekend worship services. Special music and instrumentation vary each
week and is unique to the weekly chapel service.

Sundays 8:00am & 11:05am - Traditional Worship: This is a more formal, traditional
service using different liturgical settings from the Evangelical Lutheran Worship Hymnal. Hymns,
accompaniment, special music, and instrumentation vary from week to week.

Sundays 9:00am - New Horizons Service: This service utilizes a wide variety of musicians and
varied special music offerings hosting numerous contemporary songs, hymnody, and liturgy led by
various song leaders, keyboard, piano, and varied other instrumentation.

Calvary members of all ages share their wide array of gifts in our weekly worship in the following
capacities: scripture reader (lector), usher, greeter, choirs, song leader, musical accompaniment,
sound system and video-projection operation, altar guild, acolyting, and Communion bread-making.
