Calvary is a very stable ministry environment. The church has responded well to progressive but balanced innovation and has a positive atmosphere. Calvary is thankful for God’s good work in and through the congregation. The church anticipates ongoing growth and positive, impactful ministry. Calvary desires to help people connect with the personal hope of Jesus and see everyone become multiplying disciples of Christ. The church will benefit greatly from a leader who is committed to discipleship through training and personal example and a leadership style which is relationally based with the ability to encourage and motivate.
