Worship
at Calvary
Our parish has strong traditions of worship and music. Our liturgy, from
the Book of Common Prayer, follows the order of services printed in the
bulletin.
Sunday morning
worship includes two services, the 8:00 a.m. Holy Eucharist Rite I and
the 10:00 a.m. Eucharistic Rite II, which includes the Adult Choir and
the St. Ceclia Choir. The Cradle Room, staffed with experienced
caregivers, is available for children three and under.
Believing that the
altar in the church is God’s, not our own, we invite all who are
baptized or believe in Jesus to share communion, including children.
Receive the bread wafer in your outstretched palm, then take a sip of
wine or dip the wafer lightly when the chalice comes to you.
We welcome you to
worship in the way you find most comfortable. There are also
opportunities actively assist in the celebration:
