Staff
Preaching Minister - Gary E. Fenner
The Fenners moved to Sellersburg from Richmond, VA in April, 1986 to help found Calvary Christian Church in partnership with the Christian churches in the area cooperating through Southern Indiana New Church Evangelism. Gary studied at Cincinnati Bible College and Seminary (now Cincinnati Christian University) and received a Bachelor of Arts Degree in 1977 and a Master of Arts Degree in 1979. He also received a Master of Sacred Literature Degree from Louisville Bible College in 1997. His wife Debbie was also a graduate of Cincinnati Christian University.
Besides his work in the church, he has committed himself to serving the community. He has served as an elected official on the Town Board, as a member of the Parks Board, a substitute teacher in the schools, as a member and officer of the local Minister’s Association and fulfilled his passion toward law enforcement by serving as the Chaplain for the Sellersburg Police Department since 1990. He also serves as Chairman of the Board of Regents of Louisville Bible College.
Gary was married to his wife Debbie for 33 years until she went to be with the Lord in 2011. He has three grown children; all of whom are married.
Associate Minister - Peter Rasor II
Peter Rasor began in 2005 serving as the Associate Minister at Calvary Christian Church. He also teaches theology and philosophy at Louisville Bible College. He holds a B.S. degree from Valparaiso University in Mechanical Engineering, Master of Ministry and Master of Divinity degrees from Cincinnati Christian University, Master of Theology from Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, and earned a PH.D in Christian philosophy and theology at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in May of 2010.
Peter has a beautiful family. He married his wife Jennifer in 1998 and has three children, Samantha, Alyssa, and Leah.
Youth Minister
Kevin R. Beck began his ministry with Calvary Christian Church as a part time interim Youth Minister. We liked him so much, we hired him permanently. He began his ministry with us in the fall of 2007. Kevin is a "home grown product." He graduated from our own Silver Creek High School and grew up in Memphis Christian Church, a sister church just seven miles from us. He is a 1993 graduate of Cincinnati Bible College (now Cincinnati Christian University). In nearly twenty years of ministry, he has served congregations in the areas of youth, music, and preaching. He has also taught for several years in Christian schools, and spent almost five years as a missionary in Mozambique.
He and his wife Mindy live just a few miles away in Jeffersonville.
Other Supporting Staff
We are also blessed to have additional staff that includes Diane Fenner serving as secretary and several volunteers coordinating the music program. But, the most important people of the staff are all the members of the congregation who make it their ministry to "do" the work of the church; whatever may be needed on any given day. If not for them, the church would not have nearly the strength it has today.
