Our History

Perry Baptist Church is located in a residential neighborhood in Perry Township between the cities of Canton and Massillon, Ohio.  In January 1968, the corner lot at Kendal Avenue and Perry Drive S.W. was secured with the goal of reaching a community for Christ in a newly built church. The purchase of the farmhouse next door and redirection of its use to a parsonage in 1995, along with a new church office has allowed a constant neighborhood presence.

Pastor Tim Shaw is the congregation’s fourth pastor and shares the heart of this flock to reach the community with the gospel of Jesus Christ.
