About this church
Calvary Chapel Ellicott City holds Sunday worship at 8:30 and 10:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m., with Thursday service at 7 p.m. Calvary Kids classes for nursery through fifth grade are available only during the first two Sunday hours, not at 12:30. Middle- and high-school students meet Sunday from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. for Bible study and worship. Men have a Monday Bible study at 7 p.m. in person or 8 online, while women's studies operate seasonally in fall and spring. Those differences make the choice of Sunday hour especially important for households needing age-specific programming.
The church began in August 2003 after Dan and Cameron Sexton moved to the area to establish a ministry of verse-by-verse, chapter-by-chapter Bible teaching. Its mission follows Jesus' command to make disciples, and its vision is an authentic community seeing the city changed through the Gospel. International mission work includes a family serving in Nigeria through biblical literacy, educational programs, discipleship, and development of a Christian library and family center. A first-time adult can attend any Sunday hour or Thursday evening. Families with young children should choose 8:30 or 10:30, teenagers have the separate Sunday evening gathering, and adults pursuing gender-specific studies should confirm the active season and online access before joining.
