It was 1907 when the congregation of Calumet's First Baptist Church undertook to erect a new building. In the years following, the area would see the continuing rise and fall of the mining industry, two world wars, and a worlwide depression. In spite of struggles and adversity, the church continued its ministry and managed to pay off the original mortgage and expand with two major additions. By kay Moore (Mskatie) on Sunday, November 4, 2007 - 06:51 pm: Congratulations to all the present members of the First Baptist Church. And good memories of those past members. God bless you all. What a lovely building! By Theresa R. Brunk (Trb0013) on Sunday, November 4, 2007 - 07:03 pm: Well worth the wait today. And it looks like you had beautiful weather for the event also. Congradulations! By kosk in Toronto (Koskintoronto) on Sunday, November 4, 2007 - 08:08 pm:

I believe that's the neatest, most unique architecture I've ever seen of a church. By Betty Paull Colborn,AZ (Betty) on Monday, November 5, 2007 - 03:45 am: This is great Charlie. I wish my dad were alive to see these pictures and pasty cam. He would have loved looking at all the pictures from 'up home'. This is the church my parents were members of when I was born MANY years ago now. Rev. Marvin Turner was our pastor then. My mother Ruby Paull is still living at 92 years of age. I will show her this when she comes to AZ in Dec. She will love the memories. Like 'Just Me' said above, keep spreading the word First Baptist Church. Thanks Charlie for memories. By Betty Paull Colborn,AZ (Betty) on Monday, November 5, 2007 - 03:49 am: Charlie or Jon, what year was the first picture taken? By Charlie at Pasty Central (Chopper) on Monday, November 5, 2007 - 04:35 am: Not sure about the exact year, but it appears to be about 1957. By Liz (Liz) on Saturday, November 10, 2007 - 11:15 am: I'm glad to see the pictures of my home church and to read the update on their celebration that I missed. I have great memories in this church: crawling around under the pews after church as a kid, Christmas plays, Awana, poplucks, etc. Praise God for His faithfulness at 1st Baptist! By David J. Brown (Davbrown) on Saturday, December 15, 2007 - 01:40 pm: What good memories this series of photos creates for me. As a teen I went to Gitchee Gumee several times. I spent a year at Tech in the 60s and went to Calumet First Baptist during that year. I have great memories of Pastor Hart from both places. May God continue to bless the church. |
