About This Organization

Calvary Nexus has served the community of Camarillo, CA for over 26 years. The church was founded by their teaching pastor, Bruce Zachary, in his home.

As Calvary has grown, they have never lost that sense of community and belonging they started with when Bruce first started in their home.
