We Are Biblical

We believe God inspired the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments to reveal himself and his salvation.  We believe the Scriptures are authoritative in everything to which they speak, the only infallible rule for what we believe of God and how we live as members of his family. We seek to be a thoroughly Word-centered church.

We Are Reformed

Calvary is committed to the biblical truths of the Reformation.  We emphasize God's glorious sovereignty in our salvation, in our worship, and in all of life. We rejoice in our covenant God who has revealed his grace and truth in the person and work of the Lord Jesus Christ.

We Are Confessional

We believe the teaching of the Bible is well summarized in the Westminster Confession of Faith and Catechisms. We call them our doctrinal standards, but they always remain subordinate to God's Word. While our members are not required to affirm them in their entirety, our officers subscribe to them and we often take the opportunity to teach from them.

We Are Presbyterian

Calvary is governed by elders whom the congregation has elected. These men serve Calvary by overseeing our pastor, our worship, and our members. As shepherds, it is their God-given duty to make certain that we are growing in the grace and knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Here's an excellent summary of our faith that's a bit shorter than the Westminster Confession. It is called "A Brief and Untechnical Statement of the Reformed Faith" by B.B. Warfield.
