Short-Term Missions (STM) has been a central feature of Calvary’s Mission and Outreach strategy for many years. We’ve sent teams of students to Poland, women to Albania, and families to Ukraine and Honduras, and much more. We believe that these teams are biblical, following the model Christ established when He sent His disciples out two-by-two to the places where He would follow. Our goal is to be a blessing to our partner missionaries, to the national church, and to the lost. And the perspective that team members bring back to our church helps us all better understand the needs of the world and the joy of being part of God’s global family. Each team is planned according to the vision of the hosts, not our own, and focuses on ministry, not just service. Team members are equipped and prepared to go with hearts that choose to learn more than they do, to build relationships, and to minister alongside national brothers and sisters. 3
