John Legend croons at West Philadelphia church’s Sunday service

    The Sunday service at West Philadelphia’s Calvary Baptist Church paid off for the congregation in more than one way.

    Aside from the usual weekend service, church members were treated to a performance by University of Pennsylvania grad John Legend. The Grammy Award-winner performed an Aretha Franklin song during the service, and West Philly Local has a photo of some very happy-looking fans.
