If you are anxious about what’s happening in our world or have questions about what the Bible has to say, we are a group of followers of Christ who would be happy to talk with you. We love the Lord and seek to be an encouragement to others. While we may not be able to answer all your questions, we will search the Bible with you to see what the Lord has to say. We are also available to pray with you.
You can reach us by phone at (269) 359-3702
Monday – Friday from 3-5 p.m. or 7-9 p.m.
Nik Ripken, this year’s Global Impact Weekend speaker, has provided Calvary free access to the film, The Insanity of God. The film tells the story of the Ripken’s own faith journey and the stories of many of our brothers and sisters in the persecuted church. It is a film of hope in hard places. For more information read Pastor Jeff’s letter here. To access the movie, click here.
Service Opportunities
Our Mask Ministry is available to connect those making masks with those needing masks. We have plenty of masks available, so please don’t hesitate to ask! We’ve created a form that will allow us to make this connection. Please use this form to:
Communicate your willingness to provide masks and the number of masks available
Communicate your need for masks and the number needed
Let us know you’re willing to pick up and deliver masks (contact-free, of course)
If you’d like to participate, please click here. All masks will be picked up and delivered by volunteers from the church. Note that masks are not available to pick up at the church office at this time.
