CHARLES MCCALLUM
Disciple-maker for Jesus is how Charles would likely want to be known. He has a passion to see the Body of Jesus Christ grow together as disciples and make disciples. He believes that man, having been made in the image of God, was made for relationship. Charles values relationship in community as a part of a Christian’s spiritual development and growth.
The McCallum Family
Charles and his wife, Mary, have been married since 2008. God has blessed them with three boys: A.J., Micah, and John. They live in Summerville, SC and serve faithfully at Old Fort Baptist Church.
