Unleash Compassion

1 Peter 3:8 reminds us that we are to be sympathetic, to love one another, to be compassionate and humble. As a church, when we take care of others, we are compassionate. This isn’t new to Calvary, or any other church. Each week there are many ways that we each find opportunities to show compassion. Jesus was compassionate, and our mission is to live and love as He did. We want to be even more strategic in our vision for showing compassion in our local area.

THE SARPY CARE CENTER

Since it launched in the fall of 2021, the Sarpy Care Center has become a weekly resource for hundreds of people here in our community. The SCC currently provides a weekly food pantry and diaper bank, food deliveries, and other connections to resources in the community. As it continues to grow, these connections have become even more valuable to those who use the resources of the SCC and we’re just getting started! We now have direct connections with both the Bellevue and PLCS school systems and with every passing day, God brings new stories of care and compassion!

Macedonian Fund and Compassion Support

These budgets allow for financial support to both those who call Calvary home, as well as those who are just meeting us for the first time! Our team helps to assess the needs, then works to meet those needs as a way of caring for those who we do life with!

Military + Veteran Care

Calvary is uniquely positioned here in the area as we seek to help those both active and retired from the military. Through our personal relationships and partnerships, this new budget will go to provide help to those who need it here locally.

Guitars 4 Vets

This organization uses music to provide therapy and healing for those who have experienced trauma or PTSD while serving. Music helps decrease anxiety, increase self-esteem, and reduce episodes of panic attacks, nightmares, and flashbacks. A research study of Guitars 4 Vets students showed a 21% improvement in PTSD symptoms and a 27% decrease in related depression symptoms.

Campus Partnerships

Each of our campuses has established partnerships unique to their area, demographic, and the needs of their community. Currently, we’re working in Omaha, Bellevue, and Papillion with organizations, schools, and care facilities to help make a difference in the lives of others!
