Scent Request

Some in our church family have sensitivities to scents and chemicals. For the health and consideration of others, we’d like to ask everyone to please use unscented hygiene and cosmetic products on Sunday mornings. Thank you for being so considerate. 

Parking

  • Please be aware of the “no stopping” signs after the school parking on Evelyn Ave. People have been ticketed.
  • Also, please be aware to not park in other churches' parking lots. Thanks!

Ottawa Innercity Ministries is a Christian charitable organization whose actions are shaped by the Bible. Micah 6:8 influences OIM’s approach to ministry, as our team works to embody the “justice”, “mercy,” and faithfulness it describes. As a Christian charitable organization, the faith of staff and volunteers shapes both how we choose to model our programs, the vocabulary we use each day, and the core values that shape our mission and vision. Visit us here.

Worship Database Playlist

Do you sometimes find yourself trying to learn the songs we sing at Calvary on the fly? Do you want to know them in advance? Or maybe you know most of them already, but you want to belt them out at Small Group, at home, in the car, on the bus, in the shower, or wherever? Or maybe you want to teach your kids these songs? We’ve got you covered. We’ve put together a Spotify playlist with our entire worship database. You can access it at calvarybaptistchurch.ca/worship.


Sermon Manuscripts

If English is your second language and having a copy of the sermon would help you understand better, please let us know, and we’ll get you a printed or soft copy of the sermon. You can also get a copy of this week's manuscript here.
