Many professional venues don't house this type of audio/visual equipment. Now what's even more important are the people inside. These are the most down to earth, caring, friendly, easy to get to know people that I've come across in my life. I'd recommend anyone to come and immerse yourself in the experience, you won't be disappointed!!

Our good friends daughter chose this location for her wedding and it was perfect in every way, except for the proud pastor needing to provide a ten minute (no exaggeration) history lesson on the chapel. While the history is interesting, it did seem out of place for this wedding celebration and sacramental ceremony. Other than that, it's a wow!

In Nov. of 2017 I moved to North Carolina from Hyde Park, NY. Here in NC my Church resembles an…read moreelementary school from the outside. On the inside, there are no pews or kneelers - just chairs - and no candle stations. Everything is very modern and quite bare - although they do have the Stations of the Cross, a Crucifix above the altar and a small stylized gesso statue of the holy family. But there is no sense that you are entering holy ground where everyone speaks in whispers. There is always a lot of chatter and laughter even right up to the moment that Mass begins. Have been going through withdrawal symptoms ever since I left New York and your beautiful Church! I was a part of it for just over 15 years! I miss it so much it is too painful to bear.

This church has become my home…read more I walked in a little over a year ago not knowing what to expect, but knowing I needed and wanted more than what I had been experiencing.  I needed to hear and understand the word of God. I wanted to be closer to Him, and surrounded by others who love and know His love, not just check a box, and make appearances. God was drawing me away from all that was a facade.. He's drawing you right now. I remember that first Sunday I went in to 'check it out'...there was this uplifting music coming from within, so different from the old Hymnals that seemed to speak another language and had rarely stirred my heart. It was upbeat, joyful, and relatable.. speaking to the world today. The Pastor (Bobby) welcomed everyone.. I loved that he wasn't wearing a 'costume', he was dressed casually and spoke in such a passionate and humble way. He brought his humor, love and his flaws. That was what blew me away that day. The fact that people were not wearing their 'Sunday masks', above all the Pastor. In the past, I had always left church feeling kinda disconnected from everyone, not feeling good enough or a part of it.. and always reading this perfect posturing from the church leaders which can be intimidating to the person trying to get closer to God. Pastor Bobby was so relatable, and 'sprinkled' his experiences and heart in, but his main objective was sharing the word of God. It was so refreshing, and the presentation was fascinating to me. There were screens on each side of him that referenced other scripture verses that supported the book he was teaching and it made it so understandable.. I can remember thinking, 'wow, this is what it should be like.. not a church "leader" up there giving his own opinion and reinforcing the church and traditions, whilst only 'sprinkling' in God. They even offer free Bibles to all who attend to keep if they don't have one. I fought back tears that day, but they ran down anyway as I thanked the Lord for leading me there. I knew it was where I needed to be to understand His words.. and to grow in Christ. I was lost for so very long. I literally ran into the Pastor afterwards and asked him where the offering basket was, as I wanted to give, and he waved his hand away and said cut that out, relax, go check out the cafe and enjoy the day, we are happy you are here. (They do not pass an offering basket. Ever.) There's a cafe where everyone hangs out afterwards and enjoys fellowship and breakfast. On the way, I saw multiple rooms filled with 'littles' learning and playing together. I have never seen a place so busy with love and affection for God, and for others. I called the next day to ask about membership and the woman told me they don't hold membership.. as it is about you connecting with God.. not you and a 'church'. Wow.  I knew this was my new home. The true 'Church' are and should be all that believe in Jesus Christ, the Son of God. He is our Lord and Savior, and was sent to die for our sins, to give us a way to the Father.. to save us. He brings us together to worship and serve Him, and bring others closer to Him. If you are expecting statues, and stained glass to "fill' you with the Spirit, this is not your church.. like the pastors, it is casually dressed, and placed for the purpose of worship and praise together. I have been to many churches that were ornately designed, and filled to capacity, (and I am sure there are many wonderful churches that have these qualities) but I have never personally experienced a closeness, or a time where the Spirit of God was filling the place as I have and still do. The Pastors of Calvary are the instruments of God, inspired by the Holy Spirit in bringing others to know and love Him, and be known and loved by Him. It has become my home in such a short time. I never thought I would be writing a review on a church, but Calvary is so special. I participate in the Women's Bible Study and have been so warmly welcomed. God has been so good in my life, and all He has done, and continues to do in my heart. I finally opened it to Him, and gave it back to Him to make it into all that He has intended it to be.  This church is a learning church, a growing church, never setting out to build itself but building others to a closer relationship with their Lord and Savior. Come see for yourself, and I encourage you to attend the Wednesday night service with Pastor Nick, he is another phenomenal teacher, and humble and genuine man, full of love for the Lord, and passion in bringing others closer to their Savior. Jesus is just a half a turn away..He's that close, and He's waiting for you to open the door to your heart to Him. 'For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life' Amen.
