Hello, friend — I’m Pastor Shannon Eaton. On behalf of our whole church family, I’d love to personally invite you to join us this Sunday here on Williams Road.

We’re a Bible-believing Baptist church that loves the Lord Jesus Christ, preaches the King James Bible, and cares for one another like family.

About Our Church

A church that still believes the Book.

Calvary Baptist Church has gathered here in the John T. White area of east Fort Worth since 1953 — more than seventy years of worshipping the Lord Jesus Christ, studying His Word, and caring for one another as a family.

Our mission is simple: to preach the Bible and exalt the Lord Jesus Christ. We long to see people born again, families strengthened in the faith, and our community reached with the Gospel.

The Word

We preach and teach the King James Bible — every verse, in context, without apology.

The Family

We strengthen homes and love one another, discipling the next generation together.

The Community

We reach our east Fort Worth neighbors with the good news of Jesus Christ.

Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

— Proverbs 3:5-6 (KJV)

Our Story

Faithful on Williams Road since 1953.

For over seventy years, God has grown a little tent meeting into a church family that still gathers to worship Him in east Fort Worth.

1953

Brother James Everett, his wife Edna, and the Blair and West families set out to bring the gospel to the John T. White area — gathering in a small 16′×18′ tent on borrowed land.

1955

The young congregation purchased the old Inglewood Heights Methodist Church building for $550 and relocated it to the property.

1957

A Sunday School wing was added as more and more families made Calvary their church home.

1991

A fellowship hall extension was raised up through the hands and labor of the church family.

1999

A bright, sunlit front lobby with double glass doors, a pastor’s study, offices, and new restrooms were added.

2009

A paved parking lot and updated facilities were completed — welcoming the next generation of worshippers.

“The Lord has always supplied our need, and the church never had to set a budget.”
— Pastor James Everett, Founding Pastor

What We Believe

We ground everything on the Word of God and hold to the historic doctrines of the Baptist faith. Here are four of them.

The Bible

The King James Bible — whole, verbally inspired, infallible, and authoritative — is the sole authority for the lives of believers.

Jesus Christ

Fully God, virgin-born, sinless, crucified and bodily risen, ascended, and coming again in His personal, premillennial return.

Salvation

By grace through faith in Christ’s shed blood and resurrection — and every believer is eternally secure in Him.

The Church

A body of regenerated, immersed believers, led by pastors and deacons, gathered to worship God and preach the Gospel.

How to Know You’re Saved.

The Bible tells us salvation is a gift from God, received by faith in His Son Jesus Christ. The Roman Road through Scripture lays it out simply.

A

Admit

Romans 3:23

Admit that you are a sinner. “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.”

B

Believe

Romans 5:8

Believe that Jesus Christ died for you. “While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.”

C

Call

Romans 10:13

Call upon the Lord. “Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.”

Giving

Support the Work of the Lord.

Your tithes and offerings keep the doors open, support our ministries, and help us reach east Fort Worth with the Gospel. Give securely online — or drop your offering in the plate on Sunday.

“Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give... for God loveth a cheerful giver.”— 2 Corinthians 9:7
