Calvary Church has recently undergone a complete renovation of its facilities in order to increase the congregation's
outreach in Christ's name. The project includes expanded
worship space, a new fellowship hall and kitchen, added
education space for the weekday child care center and Sunday
school, new administrative offices, and renovations to remaining
structure including upgraded accessibility.
OUR BUILDING PROJECT
We broke ground in 2005, built a new education wing and fellowship hall that opened in the spring of 2006, and had planned to be in the new sanctuary by Christmas of 2006. Then, on November 8, 2006, there was a devastating fire in the nearly completed sanctuary which set the project back. We praise God, however, thanking Him that no one was hurt. After four months of clean up and restoration, construction resumed. The congregation worshipped in the new Sanctuary for the first time on Easter - April 8, 2007. Now only a few odds and ends remain until the projected is fully completed. The members of Calvary invited you to join us in our new facilities for worship, study and service in Christ's name!
Here are pictures of our groundbreaking and construction progress. The last two pictures show our completed building!
 
  
  
 
HOW THE PROJECTED WAS AND IS
BEING FINANCED:
The renovation and expansion project was financed by member
contributions and also a mortgage. Mortgage payments are
part of the church budget, however, members'
envelope boxes also contain a monthly green building fund
envelope. These are for "second mile" gifts - above the
regular pledge that supports general mission and ministries of
the church - that will help us pay off our mortgage more
quickly. All funds contributed to or raised for (see below)
the Building Fund are applied directly to our mortgage
principal.
