Official name of the ministry: Counseling Ministry

To whom do you minister?: Individuals, married couples, families, and groups.

Ministry Philosophy: To come along side those desiring healing, growth, and greater freedom in life, relationships, and vocation with grace, truth, and training in righteousness.  Called to be like Christ (who is God; and God is love) we are called to become more loving and more loveable. Counseling assists in the putting off of the old self and putting on the new self freeing individuals to be “rooted and grounded in love”.

“I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit. Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong. And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God.” Ephesians 3:16-19

Testimonies for the year:

Dear Calvary Church Body,

“My wife and I started meeting with Mike Green a little over two years ago to receive help with communication in our marriage.  Over the last few months, especially, Mike has been a solid rock for me and my children while we have been going through a category 5 relational hurricane. He has ministered to me, my wife, and my children numerous times through appointments at the church, phone calls, recommended books, and videos he has loaned us. There is now more hope for my marriage and family thanks to Mike’s continued ministry and support.”

Gratefully, Darren R. Crasto
