Frequently Asked Questions
What time are your Sunday Worship Services?
Our 8:30 a.m. worship service takes place in the Fellowship Hall in Calvary’s Recreation Outreach Center. It is a contemporary service where dress is casual, music is contemporary, and coffee, juice and doughnuts are served before and after the service. Our 10:45 Service is contemporary service geared more toward our college students, but you don't have to be a student to come. There is not a 10:45 service during the summer months. Our traditional service takes place at 11:00 a.m. in the sanctuary. The sanctuary choir leads in worship with traditional hymns and the service is more liturgical. Our pastor, Dr. Robert Baker, offers the same wonderful message at both services.
How do I get to Calvary?
Calvary Baptist Church is located at 150 East High Street in downtown Lexington, Ky. at the corner of Martin Luther King Boulevard and East High Street (at the viaduct).
Where should I park?

Is there childcare?
Yes. There is childcare for birth through pre-K age children during both worship services. Experienced childcare workers lovingly supervise children. Security stickers are provided to parents who drop off preschoolers and a sticker with a matching number will need to be displayed when picking up. In addition beepers are provided to parents of young preschoolers.
