We will be

This vision is for us. Those of us who consider Calvary our church. It’s a vision of the future state we desperately hope to achieve.
(Hebrews 13:20-21) |
a thriving community
|
We see the environment here at Calvary becoming highly dynamic. An atmosphere surrounding us that is living, breathing and contagious. Where people are equipped, growing together, encouraged, and loving one another in unity.
(Ephesians 4:11-16) |
of Jesus followers
|
There are many people doing good things for others. However, Jesus sets us apart. His deity. His humanity. His love. His grace. His mercy. We are following Him. His example. His teaching.
(Luke 9:23-26, 57-62) |
unleashing
|
We will no longer attempt to hold back the great power and resources available to each one of us. Our riches. Our knowledge. Our skills. Our status. Our connections. Our gifts. Our talents. And more! We are full to overflowing and can contain it no longer.
(Ephesians 3:20-21) |
relentless love
|
It’s released in the form of unceasing and extreme love. Love that is active and working. Our love shall not be satisfied.
(Romans 13:8-10) |
to our broken world.
|
We recognize the needs that exist – both across the street and across the oceans – and do all we can to meet them. Feeding the hungry. Clothing the naked. Sheltering the homeless. Providing drink to the thirsty. Visiting the imprisoned. Welcoming the stranger. Looking after the widows, orphans and sick. Rescuing the abused and oppressed. Restoring the sinner and sinned-against.
(Isaiah 1:17, Micah 6:8, Matthew 25:34-40, James 1:27) |
