Description
For over a hundred years, the Calvary Baptist Church of Torrington has been helping persons find Christ and grow in their relationship with Him and each other. The church was organized in 1896 to provide a place of worship for Baptists (there was no Baptist church here) and to reach out to growing numbers of unchurched persons coming into the city. Today, our purpose remains much the same: to bring praise and glory to God through worship ; to love each other as family through fellowship ; to help each other become like Christ through ministries of discipleship , to serve to one another in the Body of Christ though ministry ; and to help others discover a relationship with Christ through evangelism .
We are evangelical , in that we proclaim that Jesus Christ provides the one and only way to a relationship with God that is real and lasting (John 14:6). We also believe that the Bible is the infallible Word of God. By that, we mean that every word of Scripture has been inspired by the Holy Spirit and deserves our belief and obedience (2 Timothy 3:16-17). (For a fuller explanation of our beliefs, see our Statement of Faith below.) However, while our beliefs are Biblical and orthodox , we express them in ways that are both contemporary and relevant .
While constantly striving to achieve " unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God" (Ephesians 4:13), we also celebrate our diversity. Many of our members have been in this church for fifty, sixty and even seventy years! Yet, we also strive to be a fellowship where young adults and teenagers can feel at home. We believe that different generations have much to offer each other!
