Welcome To Calvary Baptist Church |
Dear New Disciple Candidate:
Welcome to the Calvary Baptist Church of North Jersey at Garfield where our doors are forever open to all; and our hearts are never shut to anyone seeking to find a safe haven for spiritual life, growth and fellowship.
What guests usually notice first about Calvary is the tender presence of God in our worship gatherings. These times are marked with joyful worship, warm fellowship and relevant teachings from His Word - a combination that touches the heart and lifts the soul.

As you enjoy the summer months celebrate the goodness of the Lord in all that you do.There will be no Vacation Bible School at Calvary this year.

From The Pastor's Pen.... |
|
Beloved:
Once again we find ourselves pausing to celebrate a journey most definitely "Directed" by the great shepard!
The psalmist David in his 23rd psalter of our Holy Writ identifies for\us the "Lord, [who] is our Shepard," and then goes on to declare, as a resultof said identification, "I shall not want". He, who David identifies, is our Protector;our Provider; our Keeper. And as we pause to celebrate 83 years of a journey byHis grace, let our celebration be one which highlights our having been "Directed" by His presence with us.....
In the light thereof, we acknowledge that this journey, at times, has been "Disappointing,"and at other times, "Dangerous"; but always, "Directed"! So, to God be the Glory for thejoy of being able to proclaim: "We've come this far far by faith, Leaning on the Lord.Trusting in His Holy Word, He has never failed (us)yet......
"We welcomed the Reverend Dr. Boise Kimber to our celebration, and praise God forhis fellowship.Let us, my beloved; in the years yet to come, on this journey, look forward to being continuously"Directed" to T.A.G. [Teach and Grow] men and women and boys and girls to join usin following the "Lord", [who] is our Shepard!
"Yours Because I've been "T.A.G.-ed

Every 2nd Sunday of each month is "Bring A Friend Sunday" at Calvary. We at Calvary are striving to become a "Contagiouis Congregation". We ask our members to invite a friend, guest or family member that does not currently have a church home, to come worship with us and celebrate the goodness of the Lord !!!!! We prepare a welcome breakfast for our guests, which is served after our first morning worship service. As we break bread together we hope this gives our guests the opportunity to get to know who we are and who we are serving.
Our Saturday Church School is held every Saturday morning for children ages 4-12
