Calvary Episcopal Church (Charleston, S.C.)
Variant namesThis congregation began holding services in March 1848 under the direction of Rev. Paul Trapier, and moved into its new building on Beaufain Street in 1849. Though the congregation had white members, Calvary was established primarily as a mission to the black population of Charleston. Services ended at the sanctuary on Beaufain Street in November 1940, when the congregation sold the building and moved to a new one on Line Street. The old Calvary Episcopal Church building was demolished in 1961.
