SERVE LOCALLY

There are over 100 million orphans worldwide. Our call as the Church is to care for the orphan (James 1:27). Calvary supports families who choose to be obedient to the call God has placed on their lives to adopt a child and provide a forever, loving home.

There are several avenues to adopt a child:

• International Adoption
• Domestic/Private Adoption
• Child Welfare System Adoption (children currently in foster care who are eligible for adoption)

Our heart as a church is to support families along the journey in any way we can — from prayer, to diapers, to meals, to grants, to a supportive adoption community!

Every week our amazing team of volunteers works together to serve over 200 families in our community.

1 in 4 children and 1 in 6 adults in our area do not have consistent access to this basic necessity.  Every month, many families have to choose between paying for rent or paying for groceries. While providing healthy, nutritious food is one priority, it is not our main goal.  Our main goal is to make disciples and provide opportunities for our volunteers to demonstrate compassion, share the love of Jesus, and proclaim the hope of the Gospel!

There are several opportunities to get involved depending on your interests and availability.

• Kids Beach Club: KBC is a fun and free afterschool Bible club for 3rd through 5th graders and a great way to build relationships and serve families and schools in our community! It meets for 1 hour once a week during the school year.
• Mentoring: If you have the heart to invest in a child’s life and have 30 minutes a week you can be a mentor.  You just need to be a good listener! Mentors are needed for elementary, middle, and high school students.
• Classroom Volunteers: Volunteers play a huge role in supporting teachers right in their classroom! You may be asked to lead a small group, help with projects, run class celebrations, or be a guest reader. Each classroom and teacher has unique needs that they would love for you to be a part of.

There are many hurdles facing foster and adoptive parents.  The journey facing these families is not one to be walked alone.  Our goal at Calvary is to walk alongside our foster and adoptive families and provide the care and support they need to parent the precious children in their care well.  This can include providing meals, prayer support, help around the house or yard, and much more!
