Calvary Chapel School of Ministry (CCSM)
is located in Orrington, Maine, and is an outreach
ministry of Calvary Chapel Bangor. The vision of CCSM is to feed and equip God's people for service. Under the direction of Senior Pastor Ken Graves CCSM focuses on teaching the Word of God line upon line, precept upon precept.
Each student is required to participate in chapel (that is Sunday and Wednesday Evening Bible
studies). Practical Ministry is a course designed to teach what it is to have the heart of a servant
while assisting with the needs at the campus, such as: landscaping, housekeeping, office skills, children's ministry, etc.
Each student will have the opportunity to work alongside and disciple the men/women in the
Calvary Residential Discipleship/Blessed Hope program. Calvary Residential Discipleship provides
in house rehabilitation for drug addicts, offering a Christ centered total cure and an ongoing discipleship program for all who are involved in life-controlling substances. This is a great opportunity for our students to really learn ministry.
This school is intended for serious-minded students sensing the Lord's call upon their lives –
lives that as Christians will be challenged by a willingness to become true servants.
Jesus said,
"Whosoever will come after Me,
let him deny himself,
And take up his cross, and follow Me."
- Mark 8:34

CERTIFICATE OF COMPLETION:
Upon graduation the student will be issued a diploma as a certificate of completion. We have
chosen not to issue degrees. We do not want the state or an accreditation board to tell us what we can or cannot teach. One of the primary downfalls of Christian institutions of higher education is the desire for worldly status. Our desire is to have students who want training to serve the Lord, rather than to have the recognition of man. The proof of your ministry will be the fruit in the lives of the people the Lord has you ministering to and that will be your credentials.
