WHAT IS A CALVARY CHAPEL?

Calvary Chapel is not a denomination, but a fellowship of churches. Each Calvary Chapel is governed by its own leadership, and financed by the contributions of its members. Our connection with each other is for the purpose of fellowship, encouragement, and accountability. The most distinguishing mark of Calvary Chapel is a servant-pastor who faithfully teaches through the Bible verse by verse, covering the whole council of God. CCOF, (Calvary Chapel Outreach Fellowship), keeps a list of churches that are a part of the Calvary fellowship. This list allows folks who are interested in finding a Calvary Chapel in their community a means to locate one. Three things are necessary to be a part of the Calvary Chapel fellowship of churches… First, pastors and leaders need to embrace the characteristics of the Calvary Chapel movement as described in Calvary Chapel Distinctive's. This process provides the fellowship with an opportunity to display a heart for Jesus and a heart connection and commitment to Calvary Chapel. Second, the list CCOF keeps are of churches, not home fellowships. Thus, part of the process is moving a group from a collection of believers meeting together for home Bible Study into the level of commitment, accountability, and the development of servant leaders, indicative of a church. Third, since Calvary Chapel is a fellowship we do not extend this process to those who are not willing to take the time or make the effort to fellowship. That is why it is important that the Pastor avail himself to meet with like-minded men in regional conferences and annual senior pastor conference For the fellowship to be meaningful CCOF ask that everyone involved in the process avoid using the name “Calvary Chapel” until the process has been completed, and they have received a letter of approval from the CCOF office.
