Three former pastors identified the great heart of this congregation. There was a brief slide show lof life at Calvert today, and a worship service, followed by a dessert reception.
The Community of Etna and Pittsburgh Regional Partnership
Calvert is proud of our partnership with other churches in our community. We jointly sponsor the Drama of the Cross on Good Friday, a community-wide Thanksgiving celebration, and joint outreach to youth.
We also have established a partnership with a number of Presbyterian congregations in the northern region of Pittsburgh. We work side by side to enable the ministry of this congregation, and to provide a place where there is tremendous opportunity for people to feed the hungry, teach the children and share the light of God.
