Calvary Crew (Episcopal Youth)

All young people age 11 - 18 are automatically considered part of Calvary Crew.  Look on the Upcoming Events page and in the Youth News section of Calvary Life to see a list of activities for Calvary Crew for the summer.  Fall meetings will start again on Sunday, September 14, 2008 at 6 p.m.

Journey To Adulthood (J2A)
   J2A focuses on aspects of the whole person in light of the Gospel to strengthen, encourage, heal, correct and empower the lives of our young people by the life and wisdom of Jesus. Through following Jesus, we see “that your ways give more life than the ways of the world, and that following you is better than chasing after selfish goals.” (Book of Common Prayer p. 829).  Our J2A class is for young people ages 11 - 18.

  This year (2007-2008) we are combining elements from J2A and CnC (Confirm and Conform) in this class.  Last year Calvary was part of a pilot program for CnC.  One of the goals of CnC is to choose one of the Millenium Development Goals adopted by the United Nations in 2000.  We chose Sustaining the Enviornment, and during the coming year our youth will be working to educate themseoves and the congregation in ways to protect our enviornment.

Episcopal Children's Curriculum (ECC)

   ECC is offered to children in grades 1 through 5.   Class is held on Sundays at 9:15 a.m.    ECC helps children understand the covenant made in Holy Baptism, and to live the Christian life.

Godly Play
   On Sunday mornings at 9:15 a.m. our pre-school through kindergarten children enjoy Godly Play.  Godly Play invites participants to come and play with God, using the language of our sacred stories and parables.

Nursery

  Nursery is offered on Sundays during the 10:30 a.m. service for infants through age 4.  The Nursery is on the second floor of Weber Hall (education building) and is staffed with two attendants each week.
