Our Mission
Loving God by Loving People
20 If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen? 21 And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also.
I John 4:20-21

Our Vision
Grow in Faith, Community and Ministry
At Living Hope Calvert, we believe that growing in faith happens everyday as we continue to seek for and experience God’s saving grace in the lives of His people. We grow in community as a strong family of believers within the church and as partners within the community at large as we spread the message of the good news of Jesus Christ. We grow in ministry first by our willingness to be discipled and then by maintaining our missional status to disciple and love the bruised, battered and the broken all around us, those the Lord is calling out of darkness, into His marvelous light.

What We Believe
One God
We believe there is only one God (Deuteronomy 6:4 ). He is the creator of heaven and earth and of all living beings. He has revealed Himself to humanity as the Father (Creator), as the Son (Savior), and as the Holy Ghost (indwelling Spirit).
Water Baptism
We believe in water baptism by immersion in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ for the remission of sin. Through baptism we identify with the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ (Romans 6:3-6; Colossians 2:11-14; Acts 2:38).
Gifts of the Spirit
We believe in the manifestation of the gifts of the Holy Spirit. He ministers to His people through tongues, interpretation of tongues, prophecy; words of knowledge and wisdom, discerning of spirits, faith, working of miracles, healing, helps and government (Mark 16:15-18; Acts 5:16; II Corinthians 12:1-11).
Spirit Baptism
We believe in the Baptism of the Holy Spirit with the initial sign of speaking in other tongues (Acts 2:4).

Andre, Joy and Paxton Mitchell
Since 2008, Andre has been serving the community from behind the badge as a Deputy Sheriff with the Calvert County Sheriff’s Office. In 2024, he became a licensed minister with the United Pentecostal Church International (UPCI) and now he also serves the community from behind the pulpit. Also in 2024, Andre and Joy, with the support of their Pastor, Jason Staten, much prayer, guidance and direction from the Lord, launched Living Hope Calvert in Lusby, Maryland. Andre believes that to be effective, one must be transparent, relatable and practical in the application of the truth of God’s word. Without these elements present, we will not be missional to the cause of Christ and we will leave in our wake, an unreached, unaffected and undiscipled world.
