The History of Calvary

“This is the Lord’s doing; It is marvelous in our eyes”

       On May 15, 1981, Pastor Schag graduated from Massillon Baptist College.  Over the next several weeks willing workers, who comprised the nucleus of what is now known as Calvary Baptist Church, prepared the next door parsonage for habitation, and the Church facilities for services of inspiration.  On June 21, 1981, Father’s Day, twenty-two others of like faith gathered for Pastor’s first message and the inaugural Worship Service at 11:00 AM.  Two months later Calvary Baptist Church was officially organized under the spiritual sponsorship of Cook Road Baptist Church (Mansfield) and Mansfield Baptist Temple.  In November of 1981, Pastor Schag was ordained into the gospel ministry.    

      Thirty-seven years later, we are still gathering weekly with some 60 families from all walks of life.  By God’s grace we have seen our Home and Foreign Mission Endeavors grow from 1 to 75 – with over 2 million dollars invested in getting the Gospel to the world.  In 2008 we “reproduced ourselves” with the successful Church plant in Willard – Bible Baptist Church.  It was also our blessing in 2008 to establish a local chapter of RU Recovery (a faith-based addictions recovery program).

       The Lord has blessed us with historic and newly constructed functional facilities that have served us well over the last 3 ½ decades. Since our beginning days we have seen many souls saved and lives restored by the Grace of God.  We enjoy a sweet, family-like atmosphere and a spirit of unity that can only come from heaven above.
