Our Mission Statement
"Calvary Baptist Church - Helping People Follow Jesus"
Who Are American Baptists? American Baptists are a Christ-centered, biblically grounded,
ethnically diverse people called to radical personal discipleship in Christ
Jesus.
Our commitment to Jesus propels us to nurture authentic relationships
with one another; build healthy churches; transform our communities, our
nations and our world; engage every member in hands-on ministry; and speak
the prophetic word in love.
As a people of prayer, purpose, and passion, we are in the forefront
of creating a community of faith where people of every race, nationality and
culture gather as one in worship, service and work.
Through the cross of Christ we embrace the world as neighbor. Our
vision for mission energizes a multitude of servant ministries of
evangelism, discipleship, leadership, new church development, social
justice, healing peacemaking, economic development and education.
