REACH: Global Missions
Since 1932, when Calvary first opened its doors, in the very core of its being was the desire to reach Orange County and the World for Jesus Christ. Since then, Calvary Church has sent over 400 of its members out as Missionaries; thousands of people on Short Term Mission Teams;and funded Global Missions $40+ million since its start. Over this past decade each year, over $1 million has been given as separate faith promise gifts to Global Mission by our congregation yearly!
At present 94 missionary families are listed on our rolls serving around the world in over 30 different countries on the continents of Asia, Africa, Europe, and North and South America.
In addition, we have partnered with multiple missions agencies on partnership projects serving in least reached areas of the world. Calvary's commitment to these missionaries and partnership projects includes gifts that totaled almost $1,100,000.00 for year ending June 2011. By God's grace, we are working to expand His kingdom into every tribe, language, people and nation (Rev. 5:9).
We are part of a global effort to offer each person an opportunity to hear and respond to the Gospel message of salvation in Jesus Christ. Each of us has a personal role in the Great Commission given by Jesus to go into all the world (Mark 16:15). Calvary Missions tries to help you to be involved through your prayer, financial giving, short term trips, and preparation for going into full time missionary service. There are over 100 ways that Calvary is reaching here in Orange County and around the world. See if there are ways you can become personally involved in one of the 100+You opportunities offered. We want you to see missions as God sees missions – every person as an individual, important to God.
We feel an obligation to take the Gospel to those who have not heard, encourage those believers who are persecuted for their faith and equip those of the body of Christ who do not have the resources and opportunities that we enjoy. God has told us that it is our responsibility to declare His glory among the Nations (Psalm 96:3). Your involvement in Global Missions through Calvary Church can contribute toward making that happen.
Until all have heard!
