The Calvin Institute of Christian Worship is excited to partner with Arrabon, a spiritual formation ministry that equips Christ-followers to actively and creatively pursue reconciliation and racial healing in their communities, to offer a curated experiential learning trip to Montgomery, Alabama. 

On February 25, Grand Rapids Christian Schools 7th-12th grade Orchestra program is pleased to present Sing a New Song: A Festival of Psalms. This concert grows out of GRCS’s year-long theme of dwelling in the Psalms, which is supported in part by the generosity of the Calvin Institute of Christian Worship’s Vital Worship, Vital Preaching Grants Program.  

An interactive conversation about Gospel Music, honoring the power of faith, testimony and song in the African American Experience, with special guests Donté Ford and Julian Davis Reid.

This conference offers opportunities to learn from guest speakers, musicians, and artists and participate in a psalm festival worship service and other times of prayer and reflection.

Join Calvin University choirs for their fiftieth annual lessons and carols service, which coincides with Calvin University's 150th anniversary celebrations spanning the 2025–26 academic year. 

Singer-songwriter Wendell Kimbrough will share fresh musical settings of psalms for congregational singing. These songs give voice to the full range of human emotion—from lament and judgment to hope and praise. Come ready to sing, reflect, and experience the depth of the psalms. Wendell will lead this session as part of the weekly worship service time for Calvin University students and community.
