What happens at Calvary’s Christmas Eve Services?
The 70 minute Candlelight services will include great Christmas music, lighting the Advent candles, and a talk from the Bible. Visitors are not asked to stand up or do anything embarrassing. In all that we do, our desire is to present the good news of Jesus, celebrating His coming into the world and the difference He can make in all of our lives.
What should I wear?
We hope you’ll wear whatever makes you comfortable. You’ll find plenty of people dressed casually (t-shirts, shorts, jeans) and others dressed a little snazzier (slacks, dresses, skirts). Just come as you are.
What should I do with my kids?
We have programs most Sunday mornings for Nursery up through High School. On Christmas Eve we invite all kids to join together with adults in our Candlelight Services.
What kind of church is Calvary Church?
We’re a non-denominational Bible-teaching church that has been part of the community since 1931.

Will I be expected to give anything?
Nope. We do give an opportunity during the Christmas Eve Candlelight service for our members to financially support the programs we run in our community and around the world, but guest are not expected to give.
