Let's Get Acquainted

Canton Baptist Church SBC has been serving the community since 1855. Reorganization took place in 1930, when we reopened the old Community Church building that was obtained from the Methodist and Presbyterians, who had abandoned the building and boarded up the doors and windows. In 1998 we voted to build a new facility. Our congregation had grown from 67 in 1994 to more than 200 in 1998.

We are a New Testament Church committed to worshiping and serving Jesus Christ. As a Southern Baptist Church, we join with likeminded Christians in spreading the gospel around the world.

Our slogan

"Teaching The Word, Doing The Work: People Reaching People For Christ"

is more than just a catchy phrase. We hope that it gives you insight into just who we are.
Christ reached out to people of all ages, colors and backgrounds and at our church we desire to do the same. That is why you will discover at CBC ministries geared to various life stages and needs. We have a place for everyone to study the Scriptures, fellowship together, and minister to others through numerous service opportunities.

We want you to be a part of the blessings of God in the life of Canton Baptist Church. We will bring you updates often on just what is happening at our church and share the stories of how Christ is making a difference in the lives of people.

When you're away from home, you'll feel at home worshiping with us!

Pastor, Paul D. Cannon
