Who We Are

Calvary Church is a community in Christ where people are loved, lives are transformed, and God is glorified. We’re everyday people from all walks of life, united in our desire to follow Jesus and help others do the same—in our homes, our community, and our world.

Calvary is part of the Evangelical Free Church of America (EFCA), a family of churches committed to the gospel, to sound doctrine, and to partnering together for God’s mission.

Everything we do aims to:

Everyone deserves the opportunity to encounter God, grow in their faith, and be part of a church family where they are truly known and loved.

Membership at Calvary

We have regular attenders and members. Members partner more deeply in the mission and participate in key decisions by affirming elders who lead the church.

Membership is also a commitment to be shepherded, to grow, and to serve within the church family.

Why Being A Member Matters

Membership Requirements

  • A personal faith in Jesus Christ

  • Age 18 or older

  • Agreement with Calvary’s doctrinal statement

    1. I understand that (i) salvation is through grace alone and by faith alone; (ii) my sin separated me from God and there is nothing that I can do/could do, on my own, to restore that relationship with God; (iii) my sin subjected me to God’s punishment, which would be eternal separation from Him in hell; (iv) Jesus died on the cross as a substitute for my sin and was punished on my behalf; and (v) all that is necessary to be restored to God and avoid the punishment for my sin is genuine belief and faith that Jesus died for my sins.  I believe those things. 

    2. I will actively pursue an ongoing, growing relationship with God. 

    3. I have read and agree with Calvary Church’s Doctrinal Statement. 

    4. I agree to preserve the unity of Calvary Church and will never intentionally create disunity or divisiveness within this church body. 

    5. I will regularly attend Calvary Church’s corporate worship services.               

    6. I will actively use my gifts and abilities to serve within Calvary Church. 

    7. I will be involved in the Great Commission and discipling others.  

    8. I will financially support Calvary Church as a steward of the money that God has given to me and in accordance with Biblical guidelines on giving. 

    9. I will submit to the leadership of Calvary Church and to the proper, biblical exercise of church discipline, should that ever be needed.
