Our Lady of Calvary Church

Our Lady of Calvary Church Recognizing the value of Christian family life, we are committed to instill sound moral values in our community.

We are proudly led by our current devoted Pastor, Reverend John Babowitch, since 2013. Although our story dates back to 1958, Our Lady of Calvary Church is much more than the bricks and mortar of its physical plant. It is the parishioners who gave of their time, talent and treasures to make it what it is today, It is the men, women and children of the parish, led by the faithful devotion and pray

erful efforts of its founding pastor, Monsignor Wierzalis, as well as his successors. The tradition continues of Our Lady of Calvary in bringing as many members of the parish as possible into the scope of its activities. Where once the major activities consisted of the Holy Name Society, Choir, Altar Boys, Ushers, Altar Society and sports, there is now fully-rounded scope of more than 50 organizations to utilize every ounce of talent in spiritual, educational, temporal, and social activity coordinated a Parish Council. We are always evolving within our community through our many Parish Organizations and Ministries. We invite everyone to join, participate and grow with us.

This survey is not a fundraising solicitation. It is a way to enable the voice of each member of our Church in Philadelphia to be heard. I ask that you take a few minutes to complete the survey.
