MAD (Making A Difference) Projects

At Calvary Church, making a difference (MAD) in our community is of highest priority. Therefore, we have begun an initiative of MAD projects, encouraging the body of our church to plan and perform projects born out of their own passions.  Below, you will find places of involvement of some of these efforts along with links that tell a little more about the ministry.
