Guiding Our Youth to Know Jesus as a Friend


Here at Calvary, we are committed to making the church experience a fun one! Through our Youth Ministry Programs, children will develop a relationship with Jesus through interactive activities, bible lessons, and exciting service projects.  Our program uniquely focuses on building friendships with one another, service to others, and God’s love for everyone.

Youth Group begins at 10:15 a.m. on Sundays for school-aged children from 6th through 12th-grade.

Sunday School (recommended for 3-year-old through 5th grade) begins at 10:15 a.m. on Sundays and runs concurrently with our 10:15 service.

Loving Nursery Care is available for infants and toddlers during the 10:15 a.m. Sunday Service.

Jesus and Me! is a preschool learn and play program for children ages two through five. Your preschooler and his/her friends are invited to join us for a fun morning of bible stories, games, songs, and crafts once a month on Satuday mornings from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. Parents are invited to stay or drop off their child(ren).

Ministry Overview

Youth Ministry here at Calvary is focused on building a faith community based on loving God and loving our neighbor. Each week we come together to see how the Gospel is working in our lives – how we can use what Jesus teaches us to transform our lives into becoming true Ambassadors for Christ. How can we bring the Kingdom of God here today? Scripture, church history, and life experience bring our discussions of Jesus’ ministry into our modern world where we analyze them to create loving behaviors that help us live in the world today. Our curriculum at Calvary is lectionary-based and discussion-driven; we use small, hands-on crafts to enhance our learning and bring our stories to life. We hope you’ll join us!

The entire staff at Calvary, as well as those volunteers directly responsible for your child’s Christian education,  are subject to a background investigation and must complete the “Keeping God’s Children Safe Program”. Your child’s safety is as important to us as is his or her Christian education. Your active participation is not only welcome but is essential to your child’s Christian development!

She will meet with candidates for confirmation and reception into the Episcopal Church just before the 10:15 service. Calvary will have only one Eucharist that Sunday so all parishioners who want to can be at the service with the Bishop. The service will also be available on Zoom and, later, on our YouTube channel.   <span style="color: #292929; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="color: #000000;"><strong>Join here by Zoom:</strong><a href="https://zoom.us/j/6308793378?pwd=SkN0WHZKRTFiUy9FZ2psUGVsRGluQT09" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"> <strong>Holi</strong><strong>stic Eucharist</strong></a> </span></span><span style="color: #292929; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="color: #000000;"><strong>Bulletin: 2025-02-02--Holistic-Eucharist--4th-Sunday after Epiphany--Bishop's Visit</strong></span></span><span style="color: #292929; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="color: #000000;"> <span style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Our Meeting Number: </span></span></span><span style="color: #292929; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: medium;">630 879 3378</span></span></span><span style="color: #292929; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: medium;"> Password: </span></span></span><span style="color: #292929; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Church </span></span></span><span style="color: #292929; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: medium;">(capital "C")</span></span></span> <span style="color: #292929; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="color: #000000;"><strong>Join us by Phone: </strong>312-626-6799 US (Chicago) Meeting ID: 630 879 3378 Passcode: 828930 Mute: *6</span></span> <span style="color: #292929; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="color: #000000;"><strong>One Tap Mobile:</strong> +13126266799,,6308793378#,,,,*828930# US (Chicago)</span></span>", "image": "https://calvaryepiscopalbatavia.church/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/2025-02-02-Bishop-Paula-Clark-Visits-Calvary-Thumbnail.png", "name": "Bishop Paula Clark’s Visit to Calvary on Sunday, February 2, 2025", "url": "https://calvaryepiscopalbatavia.church/events/bishop-paula-clarks-visit-to-calvary-on-sunday-february-2-2025/" }
