ABOUT Calvary Ministries India (CMI)

Calvary Ministries India (CMI) was founded by Pastor. Joshua Bandlamudi and Pastor. Felix in 2012 with a vision to see the entire nation of India evangelized. CMI is a Full Gospel ministry based in Tadepalli, Guntur District, India. The ministry focuses on church planting, strengthening pastors through leadership seminars, feeding and providing shelter and education for orphans and semi-orphans through Calvary Children Home, offering free theological training to dedicated young people through Calvary Theological Seminary, and serving the needy through various charitable works.

VISION

India is home to the world’s second-largest population, and sadly, nearly 90% remains unreached by the Gospel. The vision of CMI is to reach every part of India with the message of Jesus Christ by sending passionate, well-trained young men and women to share the Gospel across the nation. We are also committed to equipping pastors throughout India with sound biblical knowledge, so they can faithfully and effectively preach the Gospel.

MISSION

CMI trains young men and women through Calvary Theological Seminary, equipping them to share the Gospel in ways that are contextually relevant and culturally aware. Our goal is to reach every nook and corner of the country with the message of Christ. CMI also cares for orphans and semi-orphans by providing food and education to help them build a bright future, so they can become valuable assets to the Kingdom of God.

What we Believe:

We believe that the Bible is God’s Word. It is accurate, authoritative and applicable to our everyday lives.

We believe in one eternal God who is the Creator of all things. He exists in three Persons: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. He is totally loving and completely holy.

We believe that sin has separated each of us from God and His purpose for our lives.

We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ as both God and man is the only One who can reconcile us to God. He lived a sinless and exemplary life, died on the cross in our place, and rose again to prove His victory and empower us for life.

We believe that in order to receive forgiveness and the ‘new birth’ we must repent of our sins, believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and submit to His will for our lives.

We believe that in order to live the holy and fruitful lives that God intends for us, we need to be baptised in water and be filled with the power of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit enables us to use spiritual gifts, including speaking in tongues.

We believe in the power and significance of the Church and the necessity of believers to meet regularly together for fellowship, prayer and the ‘breaking of bread’.

We believe that God has individually equipped us so that we can successfully achieve His purpose for our lives which is to worship God, fulfil our role in the Church and serve the community in which we live.

We believe that God wants to heal and transform us so that we can live healthy and blessed lives in order to help others more effectively.

We believe that our eternal destination of either Heaven or hell is determined by our response to the Lord Jesus Christ.
