What can you expect when you attend one of our services? 

Our Presbyterian psalm singing church in Calgary is derived from the example of the church of the New Testament with nothing added. So we use no musical instruments, and we sing only psalms. Our service is centered around prayer, praise (psalms), and explanation of the Bible (preaching).

Our services take about an hour and a half. They are structured according to the principles described after the best tradition of the Scottish Reformed Church as explained in the Directory for Public Worship formulated by the Westminster Divines and practiced in the Free Presbyterian Church of Scotland.
