Our History

Calvary Baptist Mission was organized under the authority of Holly Springs Missionary Baptist Church, Star City on September 10, 1982. Holly Springs was the general sponsoring church, with First Missionary Baptist Church of Mabelvale financially supporting Bro. E. Lowe Stone as mission-pastor. The property was purchased on January 16, 1982 and a bid was accepted for the building on June 24, 1984. The sixty foot Geodesic dome building was dedicated on April, 1985. 

The body of Christ at Calvary Baptist Church was conceived through the vision of a handful of peope meeting in the basement room of a residence. As they sought God's guidance and wise counsel for a new work, the journey began. By the grace of God and through the dedicated service of a great multitude who have been part of this body over the years, an unknown number of souls and lives have been touched through the outreach of this faithful church. Life decisions have continued to take members of the body on to other states, to other cities, and to other churches. New members find a place of service in this body and the journey continues. 

In the Word of God, Jesus tells us that we are to continue to spread the gospel. We move on under the leadership of His Holy Spirit and a wise and loving pastor. When the trumpet of God sounds we will rise to meet Jesus in the air and our journey will be complete. Until then, Calvary must travel on. If you feel God is leading you to Calvary Baptist Church, we invite you to find a place of service in this body of believers and join our journey.
