Who We Are

Hello Headers

A SNAPSHOT OF OUR HISTORY

Calvary SF started in the summer of 2010. We got our start in the Fort Mason Center in the Marina District. And in May of 2012 we moved to the Clay Theatre of Fillmore. We are a part of the Calvary Chapel movement, an association of churches that are excited about Jesus, committed to teaching the Bible, and dependent on the Spirit. 

Leadership Team

David & Kate Burdick Pastor

David & Kate were married in 2004. They both met Jesus & became Christians years before. They got connected with Calvary Chapel Modesto in 2004 where David studied in their School of Ministry. He eventually went on staff there as a Youth Pastor. In 2010 he started to feel a call to the Bay Area. And in January of 2012 he became the Senior Pastor here of Calvary SF. David & Kate have two boys and a little girl. They enjoy spending time together as a family, hitting the park, and watching great animated flicks.

Atul & Annikki Dighe Deacon / Teacher

We are pleased to call Calvary San Francisco our home church. Atul works as an executive advisor to CEOs of large corporation on issues of strategy, innovation, and growth. Annikki homeschools our three daughters, Maya (age 10), Sonja (8), and Jayna (5) and serves on the board of directors of a local Christian Home School Co-Op.

Atul and Annikki both received Christ as a young married couple and are excited to spread His Good News in the Bay Area.

Within a few days of moving into the City, Noel got connected with Calvary SF. She currently leads our Tuesday Night Community Group and teaches in our Children’s Church. Noel enjoys outdoor activities, spending quality time with friends and family, and telling people how much Jesus loves them. Noel Loves San Francisco, and prays that God continually uses Calvary San Francisco, and other churches in the City, to bring many to Salvation through Jesus Christ!

April Dean Leader Women's Discipleship

April grew up in Columbus, GA with parents that firmly believe in the power of prayer and received Christ as her savior at an early age.  She moved to San Francisco in August of 2011 to pursue her graduate degree at the San Francisco Art Institute.  While in the painting program, her focus is Performance Art. Using food in performance reminds April of her parents, who often use anointing oil in prayer and practice communion.  April enjoys cooking, baking, British melodramas and hanging out with a strong cup of coffee or herbal tea.
