Equipping Ministry
Is not a program. It is a way of doing and being the Church.
Is the Churches effort to build systems and train leaders to
identify peoples gifts and ministry needs, connect them into
service according to their gifts, equip them, and recognize
their service.
Prepares people to understand their gifts and live out their
calling in every area of their lives, with their family, in the
church, in their community or in the world.

How does Equipping Ministry serve Calvarys Mission? We:
INVITE
To present a welcoming and warm atmosphere to all who enter our
church by sharing ourselves with them and affirming their
presence with us.
INSPIRE
To share through worship, prayer, the Word, sacraments, Bible
studies and small groups Gods love through our Lord and Savior,
Jesus Christ.
EQUIP
To receive persons into membership, pray for them, share the
gifts of compassion, assist them through a Discovery process to
identify their God-given gifts and to provide support and

makes them feel welcomed, informed and accepted.
