Meeting Place
For many years, the Calvary Center at 4740 Baltimore Ave has been our home. But on December 3, 2023, we began to make 123 S. 51st St our new home. Consider joining with us as we settle in. We would love to meet you and learn with and from you.
We meet each Sunday morning from 9:15 am to around 10:30 am, with child and adult Sunday School classes being held from 10:45 am until 11:30 am. A monthly pot-luck fellowship meal has been one of our traditions but one that we have gotten away from since Covid. We plan for a return to this tradition as we get settled into our new space. This is a great informal time in which to meet and catch-up with people.
We are near the 52nd St stop of the Market-Frankford El. Street parking can be found in the area but there is no dedicated parking lot. Our main worship space is on the 1st floor and is accessible to all.

What To Expect
Our services are generally comprised of singing (we like 4-part singing), a time to greet each other, scripture reading, children’s time, a sermon or meditation, sermon response time (a time to respond to the speaker and each other), a time for sharing of our joys and concerns and monthly communion.
While the pieces of our service are generally consistent, our worship team differs each Sunday, providing some differences in flavor each Sunday. Generally, someone will present a sermon or meditation. This may be the pastor or sharing from members or we will occasionally have outside speakers. Several times a year, we have “Music Sunday” where music in various forms (singing, instrumental) are the main parts of the service.
Who is Welcome
Whether you are new to Philadelphia or a long-time resident of the neighborhood, you have gone to church your whole life or you have never stepped foot inside a church door (and are not certain that you want to), no matter who you are or where your life has taken you, we hope that you will join us as we journey together.
