Fall 2023 Formation at Calvary

We’re open all week for classes and small groups, online and in-person.

Carving out time to spend in community can be a challenge in our over-full schedules, yet the reward of knowing more and being known more fully is immeasurable. When we open our minds to new ideas and open our hearts to the journeys of those around us, we are changed for good.
