Worship is the center of our life together. Each week our community gathers to celebrate what God has done for us in Jesus Christ. Worship at Calvary Church is intended for the honor and glory and love of God and to provide opportunities to hear and learn from the Word of God.




We beseech thee to heal
all brokenness within thy Church
that unity may one day be restored.

We submit to your love and care
our brother and sister Anglicans
in the coastal part of this state,
and especially
The Episcopal Church in
[coastal] South Carolina and
their bishop,
Charles vonRosenberg
as they work to rebuild
and re-form their diocese.




































Welcome to Calvary Episcopal Church, a member of the continuing Episcopal Church in South Carolina- we invite
you to look around and get a feel for our church. Feel free to share any comments or questions that might be on your
mind through our online guest book.  If you're not currently a member of our church - we'd like to take this opportunity
to invite you to one of our weekly services. And of course, feel free to reach out and call one of our  Pastors or Ministry Leaders.

We hope you and your family will have a warm and spirit-filled experience with us as we worship and fellowship together
at our services, events, and ministries.

Your prayer request opens the door, and God is waiting patiently on the other side of that door, at all times, in all situations, to join with you. 

Many blessings to you,

The Reverend William L. "Roy" Hills

THIS WEEK'S SERMON    


Sermon_May 12, 2013_ Mother's Day





The Episcopal Church in South Carolina is continuing.

We are reorganizing with renewed dedication to carry forward the work of our Lord Jesus Christ, just as prior
generations have done since 1789. We have much to do and  many challenges to meet, but we are confident
that by moving forward together in unity and faith, with God's help, we will flourish.

PENTECOST SUNDAY
(Whit Sunday)

May 19, 2013



John 14:8-17, (25-27)

14:8 Philip said to him, "Lord, show us the Father, and we will be satisfied."

14:9 Jesus said to him, "Have I been with you all this time, Philip, and you still do not know me? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, 'Show us the Father'?

14:10 Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I say to you I do not speak on my own; but the Father who dwells in me does his works.

14:11 Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; but if you do not, then believe me because of the works themselves.

14:12 Very truly, I tell you, the one who believes in me will also do the works that I do and, in fact, will do greater works than these, because I am going to the Father.

14:13 I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

14:14 If in my name you ask me for anything, I will do it.

14:15 "If you love me, you will keep my commandments.

14:16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocate, to be with you forever.

14:17 This is the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, because he abides with you, and he will be in you.

14:25 "I have said these things to you while I am still with you.

14:26 But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you everything, and remind you of all that I have said to you.

14:27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled, and do not let them be afraid.
