You're welcome just as you are
We're a family of ordinary people who have found extraordinary grace in Jesus Christ. You don't need to dress a certain way, know the Bible front to back, or have it all together to walk through our doors. Come as you are, sit with us, and hear the Word of God preached plainly and with love.
"A Going Church, for a Coming Lord."
"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast." Ephesians 2:8–9
The best news you'll ever hear
The heart of everything we do is the gospel — that Christ died for our sins, was buried, and rose again, and that anyone who turns to Him in faith is saved, fully and forever. Not earned. Not deserved. A gift. If you've never settled where you'll spend eternity, we'd love to show you from the Scriptures how you can know for certain.
What we believe
The Word of God
We believe the Bible is the inspired, preserved, and final authority for all we believe and do — the standard for everything we teach and the way we live.
Independent Baptist
An independent, self-governing local church under the headship of Christ alone — free of any hierarchy, answerable to Him and His Word.
A Coming Lord
We live and serve in light of the blessed hope: the personal, bodily return of the Lord Jesus Christ for His own. He is coming again.
Rooted since 1930
Calvary began in 1930 as “The First Church of the Fundamentals” — its first services held in a synagogue that Jewish neighbors here in town offered the young congregation free of charge, simply saying, “religion is free.” Nine pastors and nearly a century later, we're still here, still Mount Vernon's, and still going.
