Engage with the Lenten Devotional from your home

Presbyterians Today and Calvary invite you to not only follow along with each day’s devotional, but also to create your own visual reminder of the importance of praying for peace.

Using strips of fabric and a fabric marker, write your prayers for peace weekly or daily and then attach them around your home or create a prayer tree in your yard.

Detailed suggestions are also available on page 3 of the devotional.

Be creative and do what works for you!

If you’d like to share a photo of how you are engaging with the devotional, please send it to Chaya Matos by email to chayamatos@gmail.com or by personal message on Calvary’s Facebook or Instagram pages.

During our time worshipping in Westminster Hall this summer, we will be using Calvary’s historic 1906 communion table. The table and the pulpit, both newly acquired for the opening of the 1906 building, have matching decorative motifs that mark them as a set.

During our time worshipping in Westminster Hall this summer, we will be using Calvary’s historic 1906 communion table. The table and the pulpit, both newly acquired for the opening of the 1906 building, have matching decorative motifs that mark them as a set. The table was replaced in February 1968 by the larger table that is now in the sanctuary, and has been sitting inconspicuously in the narthex, holding a lamp, various pieces of literature, and ushers’ supplies. So it will be with joy that we restore it to prominence over the next few weeks after 53 years of anonymity. The communion table was a gift of member John F. Steving, who operated a furniture store and funeral home in town.

Those who have been in the congregation for some years will remember that the 1906 pulpit currently in use was also replaced in 1968 by a much larger podium, but after years in storage, it was restored by members Richard and Leslie Crownover and returned to service in 2001. The pulpit was a gift of Margaret Loughry, who in 1906 was the congregation’s oldest member and one who could claim the distinction of having worshipped in all three of Calvary’s buildings—1827, 1858, and 1906.

Calvary had a great night at the Altoona Curve game last night. The scoreboard may not have shown a win, but we'd call the fellowship shared a definite win. Fireworks after the game capped off a wonderful night!

Dome Restoration is Underway!

This summer, while we gather in Westminster Hall for worship, our historic dome is being removed for repair.

In this trio of pictures, as you swipe through, you can see
1) the scaffolding at the end of day one,
2) the scaffolding, at the end of day 2 - it now reaches all the way to the dome.
3) the scaffolding, stairs and the wooden platform on which the workers will walk while they remove the glass.
