Who we are
Calvary Baptist Church of the Northwoods is a God worshiping body. Together we want to know the Truth and live it out as it is given in the Old and New Testament. The Bible is taught as the inerrant, living Word of God. Jesus Christ is the Savior for all who repent and receive the free gift of salvation. We are an independent, Pastor and deacon led church practicing believer baptism and regular taking of the communion table together. Anyone is invited to come and join our journey with Jesus.

Calvary Baptist Church of the Northwoods History
Calvary Baptist Church of the Northwood’s started in the early and mid-1900’s, as a home ministry. In 1941, Pastor Clayton Weekly began holding services at the Old Blaire School south of Seeley. They would later move services to what is now the Lenroot Lodge.
In 1945, a school building was moved from Wentworth, WI, and placed where Riverbrook Bike & Ski is today. Due to growth within the congregation, the church would move again. In February of 2003 they moved to the new Lenroot Township Hall south of Seeley until the new building on Hwy 63 was completed. The first service in Calvary Baptist’s current building was held December 21, 2003. It’s formal dedication and open house was held October 10, 2004 - the 56th Anniversary of the church.
Calvary Baptist Church continues to grow, preaching and teaching the inspired Word of God completely and without compromise. Pastor Phil and Kathy Markel shepherd our little country church. With such wonderful hearts for people, they are truly blessings to our congregation and the community. We hold worship services every Sunday at 10:00am, with Sunday school at 9:00am. Prayer and bible study are on Wednesday evenings at 6:30pm. We would like to take this opportunity to formally invite you to all of our church services. Everyone is welcome, and if you have a need, we are happy to help.

I want to know Thee
Father, I want to know Thee, but my coward heart fears to give up its toys. I cannot part with them without inward bleeding, and I do not try to hide from Thee the terror of the parting. I come trembling, but I do come. Please root from my heart all those things which I have cherished so long and which have become a very part of my living self, so that Thou mayest enter and dwell there without a rival. Then shalt Thou make the place of Thy feet glorious. Then shall my heart have no need of the sun to shine in it, for Thyself wilt be the light of it, and there shall be no night there. In Jesus Name, Amen.
