Pastor Dan Czaplewski is the head pastor and is very connected to the community. You may always reach out to Pastor Dan if you need anything. He says, "If you are struggling right now, I want you to know that there is hope for you in Jesus Christ. If you don't know what that means for you, I would love to have the opportunity to talk more."
Community Minister and Youth Director, Ben Piering, has many service activities and ministry events available for youth. His youth ministry is for 6-8th graders. He also hosts many summer programs and open gyms during the school year.
Other programs available through the church include the Women's Missionary League, small groups, and MCCD.
This is a non-profit started by Pastor Dan managing two community gardens by training youth and using the food to support the hospital, other non-profits such as UpStart Kitchen, and the people in the community.
MCCD was born after going into the community and asking what needs they saw. Two needs were identified. First, people need jobs and second, kids need something constructive to do. That was where MCCD was born. MCCD aims to help young people develop the skills to find and keep jobs both as young workers and into their futures, while bettering the community. They are dedicated to create a community of youth and young adults who are confident that their hopes, dreams, and aspirations can be a reality through the grace of God. To get involved, you can email Pastor Dan at pastorc@mtcalvary-cdc.org.
