Missions

Palawan, Philipines
John and Joy Stutzman, and Luke and Annie Pearson [email], oversee a fellowship of 80 churches on the 250 mile long island of Palawan. Many of the fellowship's pastors were trained at the Bible school which Calvary fully supports and is led by these missionaries. God has opened a new door for the ministry to reach desperate, homeless, street children. An orphanage is being built on 240 acres of government land, given to the ministry for this purpose."

Manila, Philippines
Nelson and Ellaine Praxidio [email] are reaching out to the desperately poor in Pasig City, a southern suburb of Manila. A hole in the backyard wall (which separates their neighborhood from the 'slum') allows these missionaries to feed the needy - spiritually and physically. The Praxidios pastor Calvary Christian Church and, along with their staff, run a pre-school & kindergarten, and distribute food to the poor. While Calvary (Philippines) looks for ways to become self-sufficient, currently, Calvary (Royal Oak) fully supports the pastors, staff, and building expense.
