About Cary...

Cary is originally from Gainesville, GA. He trusted Christ as his Savior at the age of 7, during a Vacation Bible School. He felt, from an early age, that God had called him to a preaching ministry. Cary attended Bob Jones University, where, in 1991, he completed his Bachelor’s degree in Bible. In 2007, he earned a Master of Ministry degree.

While a student at BJU, Cary met his wife, Paula. They have been blessed with two sons who are both married to the most wonderful daughters in law in the world. The Grants have 4 amazing grandsons and 2 adorable granddaughters.

The Grants have enjoyed a varied ministry. Beginning in 1991 the Grant family spent over 10 years in full-time evangelistic work. Cary has also served as an assistant pastor and youth pastor. He served on church staffs in Ohio and North Carolina. In November 2003, the Grants founded Refuge Baptist Church in Cumming, GA where Cary served as pastor until May of 2013. In September of 2013 the Grants moved to Glenford, OH where Cary served as pastor of Maranatha Bible Church.

Because of Cary’s voice issues, he preached his last verbal sermon on July 15, 2018 and then on July 29th, 2018, Cary and Paula concluded their ministry at Maranatha.

Cary and Paula now live in Elkhart, Indiana.

Where Have We Been?

If you have browsed around the site, you have seen that it has been five since since we ended nearly 30 years of full-time ministry. It is fair for you to be asking, "Where have you been and what have you been doing for five years?" Much has transpired since 2018 and we want to share some of the story with you.
