Calvary Commission
Robert E. Fenton, who came to Calvary Commission in 1989 after serving a 2½-year prison sentence for driving while intoxicated and causing a wreck that resulted in a fatality. He continues his involvement on The Calvary Commission ministry is to help people develop into what God has called us all to do — to be witnesses wherever we are,” says Fenton, who also is an elder at Church of the Living Hope. “They want to get men and women involved in ministry and mission work.”
Fenton, 51, became interested in medical missions on a Calvary Commission outreach to Mexico in 1999. He earned a family nurse practitioner’s master’s degree in 2015 from the University of Texas-Tyler.
To qualify to live at Calvary Commission, an ex-inmate — whether having just finished a one-year sentence or completed a commuted life term — must have been actively serving the Lord in prison plus have a chaplain’s recommendation.
The goal at Calvary Commission is to receive a completion certificate after one year of spiritual mentoring and life application. Classes include biblical counseling, anger resolution, church planting, and world missions. Students are allowed to remain a second year if they want to obtain an associate’s degree, or a third year for a bachelor’s degree through Calvary Bible Institute.
