Upcoming Events
Christmas Evening Service
Join us under the stars as we celebrate the true meaning of Christmas, the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ! Jesus came to this earth, died, and rose again to offer the forgiveness of sin for all mankind, so that whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved! Christmas is about recognizing Jesus coming in flesh for that very purpose. We will take time to honor our loving Savior!
This will be a unique service outside around a bond fire. We will start at 7 with a time of fellowship and hot beverages. Then we will sing some carols and read some Scripture, and we will be reminded of the true meaning of Christmas. We hope you can take a moment and join us. Don’t forget to dress warmly!
If the weather does not permit this activity, we will hold a similar service indoors, with no fire of course!
Fall Revival with Dan Knickerbocker
We welcome again Dr. Daniel Knickerbocker for a week of revival services, and we hope you will join us. Evangelist Knickerbocker has a heart to see lost souls saved and God’s people revived. You won’t want to miss!
The week will kickoff with a special Friend Day Sunday! Come on out as our friend and special guest and bring someone along with you! We will start the day with Sunday School at 10 am and the morning service at 11 am. We will then serve lunch to all who can attend. Come on back at 6 pm for the evening service as we continue to hear from God’s Word.
Then from Monday to Thursday, we will have service each night at 7 pm. We sure hope to see you then!

Maybe your kids have attended our Vacation Bible School, maybe your neighbor already attends, or maybe you have driven by the building on your way home—in any case, we would love to meet you.

VBS Commencement Sunday
We hope you will join us Sunday for the Commencement Ceremony of Calvary VBS 2024! Come see and hear what the kids have learned this week. We had a great week, averaging over 50 kids each day, and we were able to contribute to a great mission work! Hope you will join us starting at 11 am for the commencement. Come early at 10 am for Sunday school classes for all ages, and we also invite you to join us for the evening service at 6 pm.
Easter Services at Calvary
You are invited to join us on March 31 for Easter Morning Service! Come for breakfast starting at 9:15 am, and stay for our Sunday School time at 10 am and our morning service at 11 am.
There is no more significant, life-changing event for today then the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Easter is a special day to celebrate this blessed event. Jesus died for the sins of the whole world and rose again from the dead to offer eternal life to all who will call upon Him. The truth is that all have sinned and come short of the glory of God; and that the wages of that sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. You can repent and turn to Jesus, placing your faith in Him for salvation, and He will save you and make a new person out of you!
If you do not know Jesus Christ as your Savior, it would be a privilege to introduce you to Him. You can read more of your eternal destination and how to be saved by clicking this link, and also we would love to meet you at one of the above mentioned service times on Easter or at any of the times listed on our website.
Perhaps you are looking for a church family in the Norfolk area and have yet to find where the Lord would have you be. We hope you will consider visiting with us. We would love the opportunity to meet you too!
New Year's Eve Special Guests: The Knickerbocker Brothers Quintet
We cordially invite you to spend part of the evening of New Year’s Eve with us at Calvary Baptist Church as we welcome the Knickerbocker Brothers who will be singing live with us starting at 6:00 PM.

Also, we look forward to the first-born of the brothers, Tim, sharing a message from God’s Word. Tim is a longtime missionary to France where God has used him greatly to start churches and a youth camp.
The service will start at 6:00 PM and will go to around 7:30 PM (or so). Hope to see you there!
Christmas Eve Services
During this busy season, don’t forget to take time to appreciate God’s great gift to all people, the gift of salvation through His Son, Jesus Christ.

You are invited to join us for a celebration of the death, burial, and glorious resurrection of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

This summer, please join us for revival with Evangelist Dan Knickerbocker! Bro. Dan has been such a blessing to our church in the past, and we know the Lord will use him again through sound Biblical preaching to challenge our hearts in following after Christ. We would love for you to come as our special guest!
The revival will start on Saturday as an Ordination Service for our new pastor, Pastor Tim Powell. The service will start at 6:00 with a meal to follow.
On Sunday, services will be at 9:45 am, 11:00 am, and 6:00 pm. Evangelist Dan Knickerbocker and Evangelist Jack Meeks will be speaking in the services that day. Bro.
