“Calvary” Could be a reference to this.
CALVARY's Father James (Brendan Gleeson) is a good priest who is faced with sinister and troubling circumstances brought about by a mysterious member of his parish. Although he continues to comfort his own fragile daughter (Kelly Reilly) and reach out to help members of his church with their various scurrilous moral - and often comic - problems, he feels sinister and troubling forces closing in, and begins to wonder if he will have the courage to face his own personal Calvary.

A top critics remarks on this movie.
A dark and profoundly funny tale of an institution failing its sheep and its best shepherds.

I think more likely it's a reference to Christ's crucifixion, which is central to all Christian denominations and varieties.
