Calvary Episcopal Church

123 South Ninth Street, Columbia, MO 573.449.3194

Calvary Episcopal Church in Columbia, Missouri
is a witness to the grace of God.
We exist to serve our community with
gratitude and generosity as we continue to grow
in our faith and service to Jesus, the Christ.

All are truly welcome here!

The Tech Team and the Vestry are working toward improving the worship experience both in the Sanctuary and for those who enjoy our live-streamed offerings by investing in new equipment. Our pledges make these types of improvements happen, both with people giving time by joining our tech ministry and by parishioners providing the necessary funding to enhance our worship experience.

The Calvary Episcopal Church Virtual Advent Bazaar is
over! We would like to thank everyone for their purchases and donations.
THANK YOU!!
All proceeds from the Advent Bazaar will go to community outreach.

WE BELIEVE a personal relationship with God allows all people to realize and celebrate life to the fullest. Through Scripture, tradition and reason Calvary Church seeks to be responsive to the challenges of social justice, diversity, and environmental issues facing the world.

WE WORSHIP in a safe and validating church home. Our services, in- person and online, provide depth and variety through ritual, Scripture, music, and conversation. Our congregation is committed to welcoming traditional and same-sex couples and families as well as people of many ages, ethnicities, and backgrounds. We are a thoughtful and dedicated parish with strong support from the Diocese of Missouri. 

WE SERVE a broad community from our downtown Columbia location. This enables us to engage with the local college and university students, the unhoused, and to provide a meeting place for many community cultural, and support groups that benefit society. We work with other churches on ecumenical efforts and believe in continuing to work toward creating a congregation that represents all of our community.
