REFLECTING THE LOVE OF JESUS.

 

“Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one.  Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.  The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’  There is no commandment greater than these.”  Mark 12:29-31

Calvary Missions seeks to love and honor God through the action of loving her neighbors.  This may be in the form of relationship, partnership, or benevolence. Whether it is packing meals for local children or partnering with someone on the other side of the globe, Calvary seeks to live into the greatest commandment; love God, love people.

Local.

  • Doors of Hope

    Doors of Hope has been a partner with Calvary for several years. Their mission is to build relationships, remove the barriers of generational poverty and crisis living, and encourage independence. Our partnership allows Calvary to provide those we serve with dignified support that empowers them to learn new skills and gain knowledge that enables them to break life long cycles and begin building a new future story for themselves and their families.

  • Hand 2 Hand

    Hand 2 Hand provides food for kids facing weekend hunger in West Michigan. Calvary partners with Hand 2 Hand by providing backpacks filled with food to Students at Macatawa Bay Middle School. Calvary’s team of volunteers purchase food, gather donations, pack and deliver the backpacks.

  • Hungry for Christ

    Hungry for Christ started 20 years ago with a desire to carry out the good work of Christ by filling a need in Hamilton and surrounding areas-providing good food through good people. Over the years Hungry for Christ and Calvary have built a partnership that has included volunteer opportunities, financial support, and providing food for many of the Calvary outreach and community events.

  • Kid's Food Basket

    Kids Food Basket seeks to provide nourishment for children living at or near the poverty level by providing critical evening meals to level the playing field for their academic achievement. Calvary partners with Kids Food Basket by providing financial support, participating in packing events and decorating sack supper bags.

  • Kid's Hope

    For over 25 years, Kids Hope USA has provided a proven, life-changing program through church-school partnerships that train and equip mentors to reach kids in public schools who are in-need of caring, reliable, one-on-one relationships. Mentors, standing alongside teachers and parents, ensure children that they are not alone. Through the power of relationship, children build resilience and a brighter future. Together, we can make a life-long difference. In every school, in every community. One young heart at a time! Commitment is one hour per week for students in kindergarten through 5th grade and 30 minutes per week for students in 6th-8th grade. We begin in October and finish the end of May. We work with students at Eagle Crest Academy in Holland.

  • My House Ministry

    My House Ministry provides safe housing and restorative programs for women breaking free from the chains of abuse, addiction, and chaos. My House Ministries provides faith based programming for women and their children who are willing to actively participate in their personal, spiritual, and emotional growth, and who are seeking to make permanent change in their lives. Calvary partnership includes financial support as well as sharing one of the Calvary homes as a place for women and their children to do the important work of healing, growth and permanent change.

Global.

Jesus calls his friends to make disciples of all nations.  Calvary has a rich history of partnering with global organizations who are dedicated to doing just that.  With partners all over the world committed to living in Christ centered relationship with their neighbors, Calvary seeks to encourage and equip these partners with the love and support they need in order to reflect the love of Jesus to the world.
