Calvary Church Family Library

Calvary’s Family Library is located upstairs on the North Side of the Education area.  This library has books for children, youth, parents, and teachers.  Resources for teachers include curricula, instruction manuals, etc.  Parents can find books regarding parenting, often from a Christina view, for toddlers through the teen years, as well as books for family worship and activities.  The entire collection of C. S. Lewis’s Narnia series is available as well as other fiction and non-fiction choices.

To use our library, one may check out a book, or books, for three weeks.  If it is necessary to renew, that is easily facilitated.  Come visit our library and share the wonder of words, thoughts, and pictures, with your family and friends.
