Music
Music has played a vital role in the life of Calvary Church since the parish's founding in 1860. The present Calvary choirs continue that tradition of excellence, involving volunteers of all ages. New members are invited and encouraged to contact Brian A. Williams, Director of Music and Arts, for more information.
Throughout the year Calvary offers special evening services. They include Choral Evensongs, Advent Lessons and Carols Procession, and Tenebrae, an ancient monastic service in Holy Week. For many parishioners, these evening services are the most poignant and dramatic in the Episcopal liturgy. All are invited and encouraged to attend.
