About Calvary Crystal Beach

Welcome to Calvary’s waterfront location! We are located at the far west end of Crystal Beach Avenue (625 Crystal Beach Avenue) . . . just steps from our front door to the beautiful Gulf . . . and the sunset views, wow! Our location has a long and rich history in the community, and we are thankful to be the newest of 4 Calvary locations which launched on September 11, 2022.

We believe you’ll find our church to be a great blend of traditional feel with contemporary flair and we regularly hear from those who attend that “this church just feels like family.” Come join us and see for yourself!

Service Experience

Our worship style is unique in that it brings a balance to the contemporary along with traditional hymns and speaks to all ages.

Join us for these engaging and dynamic services at 9:00 and 10:45 AM every Sunday.

All of us are on a Faith Journey. At Calvary, we want to meet every person where they are, help them connect with others, and provide a clear next step for personal growth in their relationship with Christ. This all starts with us getting to know each other in an environment we call, “Starting Point”. 

Starting Point is an environment we offer once a month for people looking to connect here at Calvary. It’s a place where we get to hear your story and discover how we can come alongside you in your Faith Journey. A free meal is provided and childcare is available. You can register for the next Starting Point here. 

Come as you are! We do not have any kind of expressed dress code as long as you’re not wearing anything indecent or offensive.

Come early and stop by our Crystal Beach Cafe for a free cup of coffee and some delicious pastries or breakfast sandwiches for purchase. Cafe seating is available inside or enjoy the scenic view from one of our outdoor bistro tables on the patio.

All parking in Crystal Beach is public and free parking. We also provide First Time Guest parking on the west-side of the main sanctuary entrance. Parking within walking distance is available all around Live Oak Park north of our campus.

Ready to dive deeper? Visit our Connection Hub after service to find out how to join a group and get more involved. We provide groups on Sundays, Wednesday evenings and several other times throughout the week. There’s a place for everyone to connect! You can find a group HERE today.

For more than 150 years, Calvary Church has been intrinsically connected to our community. Throughout the year you will find us engaged in annual events in our community i.e.  Easter in the park, Trunk or Treat and the Christmas Golf Cart Parade.  We also connect with local schools to love and serve them. There are lots of ways to get involved and while no one is called to do everything, everyone is called to do something. We’d love to help you find a place to serve today!
