Chicago West Bible Church is a church plant in the Austin Community of Chicago. They have recently moved into their own building after years of worshipping in a local school and they continue to be extremely active in the high school and community.

Pastor Jon Kelly and his wife Danielle have two sons and lead the church along with an amazing support staff. Calvary has chosen to partner with Jon and the church as part of a program through the North American Missions Board. Our role is to offer prayer, encouragement, and financial support in addition to sending teams on one-day or weekend trips to Chicago to work alongside the church as they reach their community for Jesus.

Every summer a group from Calvary serves with Chicago West Bible Church as they host their community at their annual Summer Blast. Similar to our Party at the Park, this is an outreach event for their church to connect with their community and helping to make popcorn, sno cones, set up and clean up is a great way for us to support our partner church.

Chicago West has decided not to have the event in 2025 but we will join them again in
