Join Our Church Family

Becoming a member of Calvary is an important step that reflects both your faith in Christ and your desire to be part of a local church community. There are a few ways to become a member, depending on your background.

New member classes

If you’re coming from a different denomination or don’t have a church background, our new member class is the place to begin. This class introduces the core beliefs of the Lutheran Church, explaining what we teach and how we are to live.

After completing the class, you may choose to join the church through Confirmation or Profession of Faith.

To learn more or join the next class session, contact the church office.

Membership transfer

If you’re already a baptized member of another LCMS congregation or a church in fellowship with the LCMS, we can help transfer your membership to Calvary. Contact the church office, and we’ll walk you through the process.

Holy Baptism

Through Word and Water

We believe baptism is a place where God's grace claims us as His own, giving us His gifts of forgiveness and faith. At Calvary, people of all ages are baptized with water and the Spirit for a new life as a child of God.

Baptism also includes membership in the congregation. If you're considering baptism for yourself or a family member, contact the church office to speak with the Pastor and learn more about the process.

Get Involved

At Calvary, we seek to live out God’s grace by loving our neighbors across the world, throughout Kansas City, and within our own congregation. Whether you’re looking for spiritual growth, meaningful connection, or a way to serve, there’s a place for you here.

Give & Support God’s Work

Giving isn't about obligation. It’s about joyfully responding to God’s generosity and being part of something bigger than ourselves.

Your gifts help support:

  • Gospel-centered teaching and worship
  • Ministries for families, youth, and individuals
  • Local outreach and global missions

We give not out of guilt, but out of gratitude for what God has done for us. Through giving, we participate in His ongoing work in the world.
