How to Plan a First Visit to Calvary Baptist Church

Updated

To plan a first visit, start with the Plan Your Visit page on calvarybaptistchurch.com, then choose a service time that fits you. Calvary Baptist Church is located at 150 East High St., Lexington, Kentucky 40507. First-time guests are explicitly welcomed: the site says, "YOU are Welcome Here!" and describes the church as "a Christ-Centered, caring church family in the center of our community."

Pick a Service or Activity

Sunday and Wednesday offerings give you several entry points, depending on whether you prefer a casual or traditional setting.

If you cannot attend in person, the church livestreams its services through "Virtual Calvary" — look for the Worship Online option on the site.

  1. Go to the Plan Your Visit page. The site links to it from the main navigation and from a "Plan Your Visit" button on the homepage.
  2. Choose your service. Casual worship at 8:30 AM in Fellowship Hall, or traditional worship at 11:00 AM in the Sanctuary.
  3. Note the address for directions: 150 East High St., Lexington, Kentucky 40507.
  4. Reach out with questions. Contact the church by phone at 555-555-5555 or email at [email protected].

What to Expect as a First-Time Guest

  • Two worship styles. The casual service is band-led in Fellowship Hall; the traditional service uses hymns, choir, piano, and organ in the Sanctuary.
  • An open welcome. The church states it is "committed to providing an open and safe space for people with a variety of opinions, backgrounds and perspectives."
  • Ways to get connected. Beyond worship, the site lists Sunday School, ministries for preschoolers, children, youth, college students, seniors (LOGOS), women, worship arts, service and missions, recreation, and Parents Day Out.
