WORSHIP & PRAYER

​From Acolytes to Ushers there are many ways to serve at our worship services on Sundays and weekdays (once we resume worship in the church). We provide this Liturgical Ministries Manual which describes each ministry in detail. For more information or to participate in these ministries contact Tom Frankman.

Altar Guild:  This ministry cares for all the linens and paraments for the services in our church.  There are guild members at every service to make sure all is well, and the altar is set up correctly. For information or to serve in this ministry, contact Mary Nesladek.

​Calvary Choirs:  The Cambridge Choir rehearses on Wednesday evenings during the academic year and offers an anthem at the 10:30 service each Sunday. The Calvary Bell Ensemble follows a similar rehearsal schedule and rings before or during services throughout the year, in addition to hosting a Christmas concert for the community in December. The program is let by longtime Director of Music, Ed Hanson, and organist Barb Berwin.

​​Flower Ministry​:  This ministry arranges for flowers for our sanctuary for Sunday worship. The symbolic gift of flowers expresses Calvary’s love and care for such reasons as get well wishes, birthday and anniversary greetings, and to say, “Your church family is thinking of you.”  To participate in this ministry, contact Lisa Schenker.
