About Us
Calvary Lutheran Church was founded in 1957 as a mission congregation of the Lutheran
Church in America. Upon the merger of the three major Lutheran church bodies in
1987, Calvary became a member of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA).
Calvary provides an active and caring ministry in Belleville and the surrounding
areas. The Care Ministry Program trains volunteers to visit and serve communion
to the shut-in and hospitalized. The Prayer Chain members pray daily for those
in need. In addition to supporting the mission programs of the ELCA, the members
of Calvary Lutheran also support local social and service agencies.
Our church building and adjoining fellowship hall are both handicapped-accessible.
The Chancel was remodeled to remove steps that posed a barrier to
those with physical disabilities. The lectern and pulpit were redesigned to
provide opportunities for all members to be involved as readers or worship assistants.
The restrooms in the narthex are also fully accessible.
Calvary is served by Interim Pastor Richard Brendel and the Synodical Authorized Minister's Team of Diane Maertens, Loretta Garing, and Carol Maertens. They
can be reached by calling the church office at 618-397-4989.
The sacrament of Holy Communion is celebrated on the first four Sundays of each month. On the fifth Sunday, Service of the Word is celebrated. We welcome everyone to join us as, together, we journey in faith and spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
