FAIRFAX, Va. — The Old Baptismal Area Historical Marker commemorates this 1930s baptismal site on Accotink Creek, where members of the congregation gathered in a natural setting to practice a cherished tradition rooted in African American Baptist worship. The marker honors Mount Calvary Baptist Church's enduring role in the spiritual, cultural, and community life of Black Fairfax City during the era of segregation and beyond.
