Refuge Fellowship Chiang Mai, Thailand, is partnering with a pregnancy center to share the Gospel and teach the sanctity of life to students in government schools.

Three Calvary Chapels from California traveled to the Philippines to share the Gospel, encourage and assist CC fellowships, lead a Vacation Bible School, and participate in island ministry. 

Gail Mays has spent the past decade encouraging other widows that God still has a plan for their lives and to lean into His love. It was a lesson she learned when her husband Steve Mays passed away in October of 2014 after more than 40 years of ministry together.

Nurtured in the Word, Steve and Gail Mays grew in grace as the Calvary Chapel movement blossomed and spread. From the 1960s to today, Calvary Chapel has grown from one small church in Costa Mesa, CA, to nearly 1,800 worldwide.

In the early 1970s, lost in a life of confusion and sin, Gail saw a new light shining: the hope of Jesus Christ, transforming hippies and burnouts into born-again Jesus People. In one of Calvary Chapel’s Christian homes, she became a new creation in Christ and eagerly embraced her future with Steve Mays, a zealous young house leader.

Pastor John Higgins of Calvary Chapel Tri City, AZ, fearlessly shared the Gospel and impacted many lives for Christ for more than six decades after he left behind the counter-culture of the 1960s to follow Jesus. He passed away on June 3.
