"It's just a phase, don't miss it!" Our approach to youth ministry is centered around maximizing every chapter of a child's life. We do this by concentrating on five phases. Phase 2 focuses on Elementary aged kids - Kindergarten-5th Grade.
First Communion
2nd Grade and up
In this milestone, parents and students attend special classes focused on the meaning of Communion. Typically this happens in Third Grade, but if your student is interested in participating please contact a pastor to explore the process. Annually, students receive First Communion during our Maundy Thursday Worship before Easter.

Vacation Bible School | VBS
July 10-14, 2023
Preschool-5th Grade
Vacation Bible School (VBS) is an annual summer event we hold for kids to learn more about and grow in their faith. Each year there is an exciting and engaging new theme and cast of characters. Each and every year it is an impactful experience for children from Calvary and the Clarkston community. All are welcome!

Baptism
We view this milestone of Baptism as an entrance into God's family and a significant step in the formation of a living and eternal relationship with Jesus at any phase or age of life. You do not need to be a member of Calvary to celebrate Baptism here with us. By way of preparation, we offer pre-baptismal sessions that allow you to meet personally with our pastors, learning more about what Baptism means and the lifetime of support that Calvary offers.

Second Grade Bibles
Each fall, Second Grade students receive a new Bible and receive a special blessing during worship. Bible classes are then offered for parents and students at this age to develop and learn more about journeying through the Bible,
