Calvary's 2026 Council was Presented to the Congregation in January

Journeying Together in 2026
 
An Invitation to The Porous Church from Pastor František


Tap here or the tap button below for the April update...

I invite the entire Calvary community to join the council in a year-long journey of transformation.

The vision for 2026 is to transition from a model of institutional maintenance to one of intentional discipleship, where we become a "porous church".  

This means blurring the boundaries between our sanctuary and the Concord community, allowing the needs of our neighbors to "leak" into our hearts and our faith to "leak" out into the world.
Welcome to Calvary's New Organist
