Calvary Baptist Christmas Bazaar re-opens Saturday, December 21 from 9 am to 2 pm.

By all accounts, on November 23 we had one of the most successful and meaningful Christmas Bazaars in recent  years!  It was so nice, we’ve decided to do it twice by reopening the Christmas Bazaar on Saturday, December 21  from 9 am - 2 pm.  There are plenty of last minute Christmas gifts to find, mouth-watering baked goods and of course our world famous hand-made pierogies and home-made soups. Spread the word!

Blue Christmas Service Saturday, December 21 - 7 pm

This Christmas season we also remember those who find it difficult to celebrate the coming holidays because of the loss of loved ones or painful losses of any kind. On Saturday, December 21 (the longest night of the year) at 7 pm we will be hosting our annual Blue Christmas worship - a service of hope and remembrance. Guest musicians Dave Homan (saxaphone) and Elaine Christy (harpist) will help set the tone for a worship of remembrance, comfort, support and hope.
