Today we celebrate 60 years of Calvary Children’s Home and God’s incredible faithfulness! Since 1966, Calvary has provided a safe, loving, Christ-centered home where children can heal, grow, and build a brighter future. We are grateful for every child, every house parent, every volunteer, every donor, and every friend who has been part of this remarkable journey.

If you weren’t able to join us for this special celebration, we invite you to watch the 60th Anniversary Event Video and experience this memorable day with us. Thank you to everyone who helped make this milestone such a meaningful celebration.

As we celebrate this anniversary, we give all the glory to God for the lives He has transformed and look forward with excitement to what He will continue to do in the years ahead.

CALVARY CHILDREN’S HOME – Summer 2025

By Uncategorized

This season’s newsletter is a heartfelt tribute, centered around a remarkable woman known to many simply as Ms. Lucille, but to a special few as Mother. Her legacy at Calvary is woven into every corner of our Home, where she served faithfully from its beginning—greeting guests with gratitude, remembering every kindness, and embodying the spirit of service. Though she has now gone on to her eternal home, her warmth, wisdom, and genuine care remain deeply rooted in our hearts. As we reflect on her life and the many who have made contributions in her memory, we dedicate this edition to honoring not only her, but all those who have been remembered by loved ones through acts of giving.

Michael Police Academy

By Uncategorized

Michael is part of Calvary’s Transitional Resident Living Program. Calvary’s children do not age out upon graduating high school.

The Transitional Program’s goal is to support rising seniors and college-age individuals as they transition into young adulthood by providing them with a long-term plan of care. This plan includes defining expectations, rules, and responsibilities for both residents and Calvary, and adapting their care plan to help them achieve their short- and long-term goals related to education, employment, military service, certification programs, and vocational pursuits. Our program includes classes on goal setting, personal finance, spiritual development, and interviewing skills. We also seek to provide each resident with a mentor.
We believe that it’s important to help each resident identify what matters to them and to define their goals through a step-by-step process. While we can share our own beliefs about what’s true, we recognize that people will only be motivated to act on things that matter to them and that are aligned with their own goals. Please keep Calvary in your prayers as we work with our young people to set them on a path to a brighter future.
