A brief history
Calvary Ministries, popularly known as CAPRO, is acronym for Calvary Productions which was her original name, started as a spontaneous outreach to the Muslims of Northern Nigeria in 1975. What was meant to be a short-term outreach in Zaria City by a group of young zealous evangelists has grown to become an international non-denominational Missions Agency with over 700 missionaries from 26 countries and with operations in 40 countries in Sub-Saharan Africa, North Africa, the Middle East, Europe, America and Asia.
CAPRO missionaries are known for their devotion to Jesus, commitment to the Word of God, passion for the lost, and their expectation for the Lord’s return. The missionaries believe that the fulfillment of the missions mandate requires sacrifice and consecration. It is to this end that the missionaries have dumped their career pursuit and ambition so that the unreached ethnic groups of the world will have the opportunity to hear about Jesus before the Lord’s return
