Welcome to Voice of Calvary Ministries
Voice of Calvary Ministries (VOCM) believes that before we can rebuild communities we must first rebuild lives. Our mission is to help individuals and families reach their full potential in Christ spiritually, physically, socially, and economically. We accept anyone into our programs without regard to religious affiliation or creed. Still as a faith-based Chrisitan organization, we believe that lives are changed most completely and most profoundly through the power of the Gospel. As the core of our campaign to help people rebuild their lives and their communities, we have set a goal to eliminate poverty in the City of Jackson Mississippi.
