Sr. Pastor

     Neil Everett has served as Sr. Pastor of First Baptist Calhoun since 1996.  His sense of humor and genuine caring persona makes him a true joy to be around.  Pastor Neil's "teaching" style of preaching enables any and everyone to gain a good fundamental grasp on the biblical truths he shares.

     If you are looking for a Church where the Word of God is preached unashamedly, then you have come to the right place.  Visit us this Sunday and make a point to see Pastor Neil following the service.  He would love to meet you. 

James grew up in Texas and as you can see in the background of his picture went to Texas A&M University. After graduating from A&M he attended Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. James has served in many ministry positions in Texas and Louisiana. He enjoys working with people guiding them in small groups and leading people to a personal relationship with our savior Jesus Christ. James and his wife Mary Ellen are adjusting to the empty nest as their two sons, Nathan and Justin are both away in college.

Wanda comes to First Calhoun with a rich vault of experience. She has worked in local churches and on the state level. Under Wanda’s leadership she has developed with her leaders a secure, nurturing environment for our children/preschoolers. Our preschool/children are taught biblical truths as a foundation for salvation and Christian living. The preschool/children ministries goal is that our children grow as Jesus did mentally (in wisdom), physically, socially/emotionally and spiritually. We desire to make a happy, clean and safe place for your children. Wanda’s husband Edwin “Red” Plouet is very involved with Wanda in the ministry. Wanda has 2 married daughters and 4 grandchildren.

Gayle Bradshaw serves as our financial secretary and does so with one of the sweetest spirits.  Gayle and her husband Don are both long-time members of First Baptist Calhoun.
