VOLUNTEER SERVE & GROW VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES OPPORTUNITIES
SERVE & GROW AT CALVARY “God can use what makes you different to make the biggest difference.” – Mike Holt Why Serve?
Jesus knew the mission and did all He could do to make an impact; “For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve others and to give his life as a ransom for many.” Mark 10:45 At Calvary we understand and know the mission, as well, and that’s why “We do all we can, so all may know God’s love and follow Jesus.” God doesn’t just call us to serve, He equips us to serve. Serving is so much more than filling a need. Serving is an opportunity to discover and operate in our Godgiven gifts while serving others, to grow in our relationship with Jesus and others, to increase our faith, and to transform a life. Serving allows us to experience what we are made for while making an impact.
