Welcome to Mount Calvary Lutheran Church. We are a receptive, responsive, Reconciling in Christ community of faith located in beautiful South Boulder just a short distance from the iconic flatirons, and we'd love to have you join us in worship and service. We are a part of the Rocky Mountain Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. Originally founded in 1887 by Swedish immigrants, Mount Calvary is Boulder's oldest Lutheran church. Except for special occasions, we offer two worship services each Sunday morning at 8:00 and 10:30. During the academic year, Sunday School is offered for children ages 4 through high school between services (beginning at 9:15).
Mount Calvary members have been extremely active in community outreach both locally and globally and we'd love to add your compassion and drive to our ministries. We collect food donations on the first Sunday of every month through a program we call "First Fruits." All of the donations are sent to the Emergency Family Assistance Agency of Boulder County. We are delighted to have provided several tons of food in just the last few years, but deeply saddened that the need seems to ever grow. Locally we are also active with wonderful programs like Community Table, which provides warm meals for those without homes; Habitat for Humanity, which actively combats homelessness by building high-quality affordable housing across Boulder County; Meals-on-Wheels, which delivers warm food to those for whom mobility is difficult; and several other great ministries.
Around the world, Mount Calvary has partnered with other congregations to support children in the Philippines who might otherwise not receive an education and AIDS orphans at the Huruma Center near Iringa, Tanzania. We have also traveled to Chilpancingo, Mexico, where we've helped to build a church for our sister congregation, and we are currently planning a new mission trip to the pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota. Please consider joining us in worship, service, and outreach.
