Calvary VBS
June 9-13, 2025
Join us for a Christ-centered, Bible-believing, Gospel-motivated, and Community-building Vacation Bible School. Our hope is to form Christ-like character, teach kids how to pray, give, and find their role in God’s redeeming story, while having tons of fun. See you there!
Anchor

We have a children’s message every Sunday
Kids are the church’s little brother and sisters in Christ, part of covenant family. During every service, we invite children age 3 through grade 3 to come down to the stage to hear God’s Word. Here is a children’s message filmed by Pastor Eli and his wife Hannah.
Nursery
Nursery for babies and toddlers is available during the worship services on Sundays.
Our nursery volunteers have completed backgrounds checks, youth volunteer training, and genuinely love kids!
The nursery is located through the Commons and down the steps (by Door 3).
If you have questions, contact Hannah who is our Nursery Coordinator at hannahrstark@gmail.com
Children’s Church
After the children’s message during the worship service, kids age 3-5 will be dismissed to children’s church during the sermon. They will sing more songs, hear a Bible study, and play games with our amazing adult leaders.
Any questions? Contact Eva Hedman here.
Sunday School
Pre-K through 12th grade
Pre-K to 8th grade students are adventuring through a 3 year, chronological, in depth study of the Bible by the Gospel Project. Every session includes a game, craft, Bible story, and discussion questions that always connect to Christ. Our Sunday School teachers are all members of our church who have experience teaching the Bible and enjoy seeing kids grow in their faith. The high school students study our treasure Reformed confession, the Heidelberg Cathecism, and other relevant topics.

Serve Trip
Every summer our church youth group sends a team of high school students with Pastor Eli to serve churches and communities across North America. They work, worship, and fellowship in Jesus’ name for a full week and leave changed by the gospel. Therefore Go Ministries equips local churches to host and direct these short term mission trips.
Twin Cities Serve
Every summer our church hosts a mission trip here to build the kingdom of God in the Twin Cities. Churches across North America send their youth groups for a week of worship services, service work, and friendship. Check out the highlight video to see the kingdom impact TC Serve makes on our city and teenagers.
