Calvary Episcopal Church

Please join us in the Parish Hall for this is an annual event. Always a Calvary favorite! Did you know a pancake supper recognizes an Anglican tradition of eating rich foods full of ingredients that were typically restricted during Lent?

Cost: $3.00 for Adults, $2.00 for children ages 5-11. Free for children 4 and under.

Look for a sign-up sheet in the Parish Hall or contact Fran or Glynn Gillette for more information. The supper promises to evening of warm fellowship before the Lenten season.

A celebration of the faithful work done by our church school, confirmation, and choir teachers. Special music by the “Pieces of Eight” piano group and activities for children. Our Teachers are our special guest and all are invited!

We’ll be recognizing Calvary ministries and enjoying a brunch together served by Vestry members. Thanks to all those who have helped with Calvary’s many ministries this year – whether you’ve hosted a coffee hour, served as a member of Altar Guild, lent a hand at a property workday, cooked at the annual picnic, assisted Lori in the Parish Office or helped with organizing one of our annual events! Be sure to stand up and be recognized for all you do!
