MAKE A PLEDGE TO SUPPORT CALVARY AND ITS MISSION

As God's children we are called to be generous with our time, our talents, and our resources... using those very things to share God's love with and tell God's story to those inside and outside the church walls.

Please consider how you can help Calvary uphold this responsibility entrusted to us by God.

Then fill out this STEWARDSHIP PLEDGE FORM BY CLICKING HERE

so church council knows how you plan to support Calvary and its mission.

Thank you.
