I have been a member of Calvary Baptist Church for most of my life. It is where I gave my life to Christ and was baptized. It was where countless people invested their time, resources, and Biblical wisdom into me and countless others. Through those years there have been times where, as a church, we have decided to take steps of faith that would seek to further the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Those steps have included building buildings that would facilitate growth, beginning strategic initiatives and programs that address needs within our community, and a strong commitment to sending both short-term and long-term missionaries throughout the world.
I believe that yesterday, June 22, our church took another great step of faith in voting to move forward with starting a second campus in Davie County. The motion, brought from our deacons passed with 99% approval! This vote comes in the wake of countless hours of prayer, seeking the will of God, and planning.
My prayer is that we will look back at this defining moment years from now and rejoice over the countless lives that have been changed because of the willingness of our church to take a step of faith in order that the Gospel might go forward. It is such a great privilege serving at a church where the people long to honor God and are passionate about the bringing the "Good News" to the world.

It is amazing how God can unify people to His purpose. We are looking forward to growing with the West campus and continue to pray for direction and wisdom for the planning initiative.
