Missions

 “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.” (Matthew 9:37-38 ESV)

 OUR PURPOSE is to help fulfill Calvary's mission to live, share, and teach the Gospel of Jesus Christ for the Glory of God and our abundant joy. We believe that God's mission calls us to participate with our various gifts, talents and calling in order to:
 
–  Support and encourage missionaries through finances and prayer

–  Help our own members hear and respond to God's call through short and long-term mission opportunities.

–  Support agencies and organizations that advance God's global cause.

–  To equip and send members to reach their world for Christ beginning here in St. Cloud, Central Minnesota and to the ends of the earth.

–  Plan and implement local efforts to reach our community and central Minnesota for Christ.

The Mission Commission is committed to sharing the Gospel both locally and globally.

Missions: Home & Abroad

 Be Radical about the Gospel. Share your time, talents and treasures. Join one of our upcoming mission trips.

 Home in the States

~ Warroad, MN: Outreach to the Native Americans with Kenny Danielson. This will be a family-type mission team going out the last week in June through July 4.

 Abroad

~ Horol, Ukraine: Ministry with our sister church. We are looking for a team of 4-6 people who are willing to use their talents to encourage the church body and reach out to the community with evangelistic activities.

~ Managua, Nicaragua: Ministry with our other sister church. A team will be going in 2012.

Support our missions with prayer. If you are not able to be a part of one of these teams, please partner with them through prayer. Prayer is the foundation of any successful mission.

Share your treasures

~ These teams will be responsible for their own support and will be holding fund-raisers to help cover their expenses. You can help support them by participating in these events. If you are interested in any of the trips or just want more information, please contact Marilyn Kiedrowski at 320-529-1277.
