Our HISTORY
Mount Calvary has had four previous pastors: Rev. N. E. Higgs, Rev. J. W. Matthews and Rev. Robert L. Monroe. Our late pastor, Rev. Dr. Josiah Cecil Cheek, was called to Mount Calvary in January 1970 and installed in May 1970. Under his leadership and to the glory of God, we entered a new worship center in December 2000. It is attached to the former sanctuary, which was renamed the J.C. Cheek Art And Education Building. Dr. Cheek went home to be with the Lord on Sunday, November 24, 2013. He served the MCUCC Family and the Durham community for almost 44 years!
On Sunday, March 31, 2019, the church family voted and selected the Reverend Raymond Scott Watkins to be our next Senior Pastor! He, his wife Lakecia and daughter Rhea joined the membership on April 7, 2019, and oldest daughter Brittany in obedience to the Lord joined on December 13, 2020. Rev. Watkins preached his first sermon as our pastor on April 28, 2019. We look forward to a long and fruitful union with our new Senior Pastor, First Lady and daughter, with the help of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!
