Consider Calvary Baptist Church.

Get to know Calvary Baptist Church. Calvary has been a dynamic, contemporary force in Denver's spiritual landscape for more than 120 years. From our earliest days in a tent at Blake and Stout streets to today's Monaco and Hampden address, we have been a people who are involved in the community, passionate about mission and looking for opportunities to serve.

At the center of our faith community is our belief in the 21st Century relevancy of the Bible; equally important is our conviction that the mind and spirit of Jesus Christ is the best revelation about how to live in love today.

Calvary Baptist Church is an American Baptist church. That means we are a self-governing body with the freedom to develop and maintain our own distinct characteristics and ministries. But we serve God locally and globally in association with other American Baptist Churches. Find out more about what it means to be an American Baptist by clicking here.
