Women's Ministry at Calvary Baptist Church

The goal of the Women's Ministry at Calvary is for women to grow in their relationship with the Lord through Bible study, prayer, worship, fellowship, mentoring, and serving others.


The purpose of the Women's Ministry Team is to support the women of Calvary in coordinating activities that pursue this goal.


For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision accomplishes anything; what matters is faith through love.

-Galatians 5:6

  • Suzy F.

    Suzy, a member of the Women’s Ministry Team since 2016, never misses an opportunity to make a difference.

    Suzy has volunteered with the Children’s Ministry Team for 11 years. She enjoys participating in the yearly Children’s Camp at Sivells in Cloudcroft.

    The Intentional Friends ministry reaches women right where they are and helps women become who God designed them to be. 


    Based on Titus 2:3-5, women invest in each other’s lives with encouragement, guidance, listening, laughing, and loving. The goal is to form strong, lasting relationships among women of different generations that are a source of support, growth, and strength.


    While there is an intentional push in January, Intentional Friends runs all year! If you have questions or would like to know more you can contact our front office at cbcoffice@cbclascruces.org



  • Operation Christmas Child

    Every year, Calvary participates in Operation Christmas Child!


    Operation Christmas Child (OCC) delivers over 10 million shoeboxes filled with practical items, gifts, and the Gospel message to children in over 100 countries. Last year over 4 million shoebox recipients participated in the 12-lesson discipleship program “The Greatest Journey.” 


    OCC is a mission project of Samaritan’s Purse. This nondenominational, evangelical Christian organization provides spiritual and physical aid to hurting people around the world.


    Calvary Baptist Church supports this hands-on ministry by putting together and sending shoeboxes. Our Calvary members generously donate various items throughout the year. Children, Youth, College-age, and Adults participate in Prep & Packing Parties for several months before the October deadline to turn in shoeboxes. Our Calvary women help support and organize this exciting opportunity to help others.

    Anyone is welcome to participate!
