New Market man launches faith-based service organization

News & Notes | Christian Brown

Michael D’Ovido of New Market recently announced the launch of a faith-based nonprofit intended to teach young adults the importance of a life of service.

Carry Your Cross “is dedicated to delivering the Gospel of Jesus and life of service posture to young adults,” D’Ovido said in a recent press release.

D’Ovidio said that as of Tuesday, 11 young people were in various stages of applying to become members of the nonprofit. He said that the directors of the nonprofit were all his family members, and it was still in the early stages of organizing.

“It’s a very new venture, but we’re excited,” he said.

Carry Your Cross will offer young adults the chance to identify a need in their community, and then design a service project to meet it, D’Ovidio said. He said he did not want these projects to be “boilerplate, go serve food at a mission [projects] … but we want to see projects with some kind of longevity.” D’Ovidio said students would be required to interact over a long period with the people they choose to serve. more…
