The Rev. Paul McLain: The Sixth Sunday after Pentecost: June 30, 2024

Calvary is an eclectic bunch of Christian people who don’t all think the same thoughts, or dress the same way, or vote for the same candidates, or even believe all the same things about the mystery of God and what it means to be human. But we believe we need each other because of our differences, not in spite of them. So, whoever you are, wherever you come from, whatever joys or burdens you carry, you are welcome at Calvary Episcopal Church.
