I am delighted to get to serve Calvary as the Christian Education Coordinator.  I organize education opportunities for Pre-Kindergarten through 5th grade. That means Sunday School, Wednesday School and Vacation Bible School. It is my joy to provide families with meaningful and fun fellowship events like the Kick Off Carnival, Fall Festival, Summer Book Club and Family Dance.

I am honored to serve as the Youth Ministry Coordinator at Calvary! I have a passion for youth ministry and am excited to work with kids of all ages at Calvary, especially those in grades 6-12. I will work alongside Calvary's young people in confirmation and middle and high school youth groups, as well as help with coordinating various events, retreats, and mission trips.

I have been serving Calvary as the finance manager since 2007.  I am involved in all aspects of Calvary’s finances, from paying the bills, receipting gifts given to Calvary to working with the finance team to maintain the budget. I also get to help steward the gifts Calvary has been given to bless the community and the world through Noisy Offering distribution and the Calvary Foundation.

I am the receptionist in the church office and am most likely the person to answer the phone when you call.  I have worked at Calvary since 2000 and have been a member since 1968.  I truly love checking in with people and hearing their stories. In addition to answering the phone and greeting visitors and members, I help to keep the office running smoothly and maintain Calvary’s parish records. 

danny@calvarygf.org

Danny has been sharing his gifts with Calvary for many years through music and worship but recently, we get to use his skills and expertise to make sure Calvary's building is running smoothly. He is a true gift to Calvary and his laughter and easy-going, helpful nature makes him a joy to serve alongside. If you need help or have any questions about the building, please don't hesitate to reach out!

I started at Calvary over the summer 2021 and I have been kept busy with
Holy Grounds, finding and scheduling worship tech helpers, worship assistants like cantors, helping coordinate LaGrave meals and even playing piano in worship on Wednesdays and for special services! If you haven’t yet got to meet her feel free to introduce yourself. If
you strike up a conversation about UND athletics, dogs, horses or anyway you would like to volunteer at church.

marcus@calvarygf.org

Marcus is Calvary's newest staff person and we are delighted to have him lead us all things tech and communication . He works hard to bring worship to wherever you are by streaming three different services per week. He makes the visual elements of worship each week so those in worship and at home can follow the rhythm of worship. We are excited to see how Marcus uses his gifts at Calvary.
