Jesus did it again! After 3 months of preparation – travelling back and forth to Iloilo, meetings with pastors, scouting the place, dealing with all the details/logistics, practices, more meetings, prayer and fasting – after 3 hours of concert and gospel preaching, just like that, it’s over and done – but the reward is eternal! Souls are saved! That’s what we came for; that’s what we are about; that is what matters most!

Here’s a documentary film of CCD’s latest mission trip in Thailand and Burma

39 people obeyed the Lord in water baptism! Another evidence of what His grace can do!

AND HE DID IT AGAIN! Amazed by His grace! Awestruck by His love! Humbled by His power! Once again Jesus did it! Victory in His name! Thank you church for all the prayers, encouragement and support in every and any way. We’re all witnesses of His wonder-working hand during the Hope For You concert. We all share in the victory and the blessings of the harvest.

WHATEVER IT TAKES . . . the theme of our latest mission trip. Enjoy and may the Lord stir up your heart for global missions.

WE CAME, WE PROCLAIMED, WE CONQUERED – Those people will never be the same again. H4U Siquijor is once again a victory we all share! Thank you church for partnering with us in this battle that was already won by Christ 2,000st 2,000

A VICTORIOUS RESURRECTION DAY! Calvary Chapel Dumaguete celebrates the resurrection of Jesus from the dead. It means the promise of life after death! It means hope of a better life. It means forgiveness, it means joy and peace with God!

It was a great 25th Anniversary celebration Calvary Chapel Dumaguete had that culminated in the HOPE FOR YOU Concert last Nov. 28, 2010 at the Macias Sports Complex, Dumaguete City. It was indeed a display of God’s greater works! Praise be to Jesus Christ!

Calvary Chapel Dumaguete celebrated its 25th Anniversary on Nov. 28, 2010. This presentation takes us back to the humble beginnings that the Lord has planted and now we stand in awe of what He has done!

“The Lord did an amazing work through H4U…to Him be all the glory, honor & praise!!!” This video shares with you scenes just before the concert, the actual concert and the celebration! For those who prayed with us, you are a big part of this. “When He comes may He find a faithful Bride in us.”

Chapel of the Doves





Mission:

Love alone for Jesus Christ is the motivation behind our missionary thrust and answering that commission He gave in Matthew 28:18-20Matthew 28:18-20
English: King James Version (1611) - KJV
18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. ¹⁹ Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: teach...: or, make disciples, or, Christians of all nations ²⁰ Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.  

WP-Bible plugin is at the heart of Chapel of the Doves. God’s order in Mark 10:13-16Mark 10:13-16
English: King James Version (1611) - KJV
13 And they brought young children to him, that he should touch them: and his disciples rebuked those that brought them. ¹⁴ But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God. ¹⁵ Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein. ¹⁶ And he took them up in his arms, put his hands upon them, and blessed them.  

WP-Bible plugin excites us and moves us to share the gospel of Jesus Christ to the next generation. Whether its across the streets or across the islands – our desire is to bring the good news to those who have not heard through the children. We believe that the only true basis of Christianity is His (Agape) love, which is greater than any differences we possess and without which we have no right to claim ourselves Christians.



Vision:

Every child should know the love of Christ through His word, hence, the entire Bible will be taught to the child. We want each child to be ministered to in a a manner that allows for them to enter into the presence of Jesus Christ. To that end, there are classes for all ages (3 levels). the curriculum we teach progresses through selective books of the Bible. Praise and worship songs, memory verses, Bible stories, crafts and games are used to instill joy in the knowledge of the scriptures. Praise reports and games are given by the children right after the praise and worship, then the study of the word. In short, Chapel of the Doves is actually a children’s church.

A life-changing mission — accomplished! Praises to Jesus our Savior whose heart beats for mission – for the rich, meaningful, and unforgettable mission trip of the Calvary Chapel Dumaguete’s Thailand Mission 2010 team.

Calvary Chapel Dumaguete Resurrection Sunrise Sunday Service celebrated at Freedom Park. Jesus is Lord Over All!

The Hospital Ministry is comprised of a group of 20+ church members who are eager to share the Word of God. Every Sunday at 2:00 pm the team gather at the small pavilion located just outside the local government hospital for a moment of prayer. Immediately, the members pair up and distribute themselves into the different wards and share the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the patients and their “bantays” (friends or family members who help look after the patients during their confinement in the hospital).

Group prayer before going to the hospital wards...

Without any frills or fanfare they ask permission to share the Word. While one partner speaks…the other prays and intercedes. Prayer is an absolute need, for without it, from the team’s experience the sharing becomes hollow and ineffective.

The response from the patients and their “bantays” is warm and positive. Being confronted with illness, pain and uncertainty about their future, hearing the Word of God is an assurance that Someone cares for them, that there is hope and that there are also people who understand and empathize with them.





There are times when the team meet great resistance, but through continuous prayer, they are emboldened to stand their ground and continue with their gentle sharing. Patients and their families who find themselves in a strange environment and who have no control over their situation bring about behavior and emotions that are far from normal. With the leading of the Holy Spirit, the Hospital Ministry Team enters each ward with great sensitivity to the needs of the patients and their respective families who are under great stress and trauma.


The Hospital Ministry is led by Dory Moncal . They meet every Sunday at 2 pm to do visitation at the local government hospital.

Sharing and Testimonies by the Members:



Vision:

We are God’s Army planting the seed of His Word and bringing the message of hope and love into the hearts of people in their sick bed.

Mission:

the Hospital Ministry assists the church in reaching out to people burdened with physical and spiritual infirmities through the sharing of God’s Word and to help them bring their needs to God through prayers and intercessions.

Just Pictures

We believe that LOVE is the virtue of Christianity. As disciples of Jesus Christ, we, at Sunday School, desire to imitate Jesus Christ as we equip kids, in love. These children are tomorrow’s leaders – in the church, in the society. We desire that we could prepare them, in cooperation with their parents, to be adults who do not only know God’s word, but also apply them in their daily lives.

Our Goals:

1. To teach God’s word each Sunday in a creative method that is age-appropriate.
2. To help each child discover his gifts, for the edification of the church, by exposing them to ministry and church activities
3. To equip teachers and parents by conducting seminars/workshops and information dissemination.
4. To hold children outreach for kids in the neighborhood or other areas.
5. To build relationships among the Sunday School kids by conducting Kids Camp.
6. To build relationships among Sunday School volunteers and strengthen relationship with Jesus collectively by holding an annual retreat.
7. To build relationships with parents of Sunday School kids as partners.




Vision:

To encourage church members especially the new ones to be involved in the ushering ministry as a stepping stone to other ministries thereby helping them grow in their commitment to the Lord.

Mission:

To greet and welcome people with our Christ-like love as they come to the House of God, thereby representing the Lord at the Door of His House.

1. To greet and welcome every person who comes to the church with the love of Jesus.
2. To provide a seat for everyone.
3. To let everyone feel that they belong to the church family.
4. To try to minimize distraction during service.

Verse:

“You must teach what is in accord with sound doctrine… Likewise, teach the older women to be reverent in the way they live, not to be slanderers or addicted to much wine, but to teach what is good. Then they can train the younger women to love their husbands and children, to be self-controlled and pure, to be busy at home, to be kind, and to be subject to their husbands, so that no one will malign the Word of God.” (Titus 2: 1, 3-5Titus 2: 1, 3-5
