Calvary Evangelical Baptist Church - Porsmouth, VA

Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. It is our desire to express Christ's love to you and your loved ones with genuine warmth.

We are delighted to share with you the marvelous ways in which God's hand is at work here in Calvary Evangelical Baptist Church. We believe that you will discover our fellowship as a family is rich in relationships that matter most.

Calvary is a Bible believing, preaching, reaching, teaching church firmly grounded on the ageless message of God's saving love in Jesus Christ. We believe that God is doing something unique in this ministry and in the lives of the people. While growing together, we worship, we serve, we learn and we reach out to our world with life-transforming truth.

We would count it a significant privilege to be used by God to help you become all that God desires of you. Our doors at Calvary are open and we invite you to "...taste and see that the Lord is good..."
-(Psalm 34:8) --Allen & Doris McFarland

Who We Are
Calvary's permanency goes far beyond the beautiful edifice built in 1999. The membership includes a diversified racial ethnicity, cultural and social backgrounds, yet, has a oneness in reaching and winning the lost through teaching and discipling believers to maturity in Christ. It appears as though Calvary's doors are never closed. There are Bible studies, training classes, and fellowship occurring all the time.

Calvary Evangelical Baptist Church is comprised of many ministries, namely: the Couples, Senior Saints, Men and Women's Fellowship, New Members and Discipleship Classes, Missions, Children and Teens, and Nursing Home. The ministry also includes the Joyous Sound Education and Enrichment Center, a private preschool/ school with a Christian Biblical perspective, and the Joyous Sound Radio Ministry which airs five days a week on AM 1010 at 3:00 p.m. Evangelistic outreach programs at Calvary include FAITH Evangelism and Campus Crusade for Christ.
