Calvary's Monday Night Coffeehouse serves warm meals and provides Bible Study to local needy and homeless citizens. Cooking generally starts around noon and closes around 9 p.m. Volunteers are always needed and welcome, especially to help clean up afterwards.

The Altar Guild consists of parishioners who volunteer their time to prepare the church for worship, to care for the various items that are used in worship, and to preserve the sanctity and beauty of the chancel and sanctuary.

Greeters and Oblation Bearers

Greeters and Oblation Bearers (GOBs) greet visitors and parishioners as they arrive at church, and maintain the visitor's book at the church entrance way. During the Holy Eucharist, at the beginning of the Offertory Hymn, they bring forth bread and wine to the acolyte at the altar.
