I am not at all surprised that this pastor repeatedly abused (physically and sexually) his sons. \r When I was in high school at Redwood one of his sons tried to rape me. It has been 22 years and I am still scared by this. I truly pray that God takes this horrible man out of ministry. He belongs behind bars. more

No Accountability for the Pastor 4/7/2011

If the allegations of serious physical and sexual abuse by the pastor's 3 adult children against their father/step-father, the pastor Bob Grenier, are not enough to make you think twice, then consider the fact that Calvary Chapel pastors have zero accountability. They own all the assets; no one sees the books (which is why they do not have membership because that would require they open the books;) and the pastors are encouraged by CC leadership training to fire any elders or board members who disagree with them. \r \r The Pastors follow an unbiblical made up Moses Model style church government that sets the pastor up as a type of "Moses" who only answers to God. The founder of the movement can't even remove him from leadership if he falls into sin and is unrepentant. more

This is one scary church. Bob Grenier is a monster and these people are following a cult. Don't trust anyone at this church. It's out in the country for a reason. See what this pastors own children are saying about his abusive behavior. \r \r www.calvarychapelabuse.com by Alex, Paul and Geoff Grenier (Pastor Bob Greniers children) more

Don't be fooled. This place sucks! 6/15/2010

Be prepared to open your pocketbook big time. There is no free rides at this church. You want programs, they got them, at a price. You want coffee, better have $5. Go there more than a month and you will be asked to pull weeds or trim bushes. Nothing is free, even your salvation has a price tag and a time limit. Once you sit down check the bottom of your foot for an expiration date, pastor worship gets you an instant extension, blind following can grant you a lifetime of indentured service to Bob Grenier, if you are willing. But money works just as well. more

Led by a child abusing, money stealing, drug dealer. 6/15/2010

Be very careful if you decide to attend this cult. They will draw you in and make you feel right at home.......for a while, time will change everything. Don't get used to knowing anyone in attendance because it's a revolving door. Don't believe anyone who says they have been there a long time, except those on the payroll. Don't leave your valuables unattended, you wont get them back after they lock you out of service for using the restroom. They do have a nice Stepford wife training program and if you are into beating your children, you can learn from the best---Pastor Bob Grenier. Check out the words of his own children and the 20+ years of extreem physical abuse at Calvary Chapel Visalia Topix and don't drink the coolaid. Pros: Far away from town Cons: It's a cult more

Calary Chapel is a great place to hear the word of GOD 6/15/2010

I feel Calary Chapel has something for just about everyone . Calary is a wonderful place to grow in the word and have fellowship with others that want to know GOD . The 8am service is more a traditonal service with the 1030 service being more of a younger style worship . Kids are welcome to skate at the skate park and we all love the cafe and startbucks located in side in the main building. Pros: The word is read daily more

CCV is a wonderful place to call home! 6/4/2010

Calvary Chapel Visalia is wonderful. Pastor Bob is a genuine, sincere, and godly man who teaches the word of God verse by verse. All of the Pastors are gifted teachers and good shepards to the flock. They are involved in the community and there are plenty of opportunities for all to get involved. It's nice to see how there is something for everyone there! Pros: expository teaching, kid's ministry, great fellowship! Cons: none more

Owner Message

  • In July of 1978, Pastor Bob Grenier, and his wife Gayle moved to Visalia, and Calvary Chapel Visalia was started. We had talked and prayed with Pastor Chuck Smith of Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa, and together with his blessing, Gayle and I moved from Eugene Oregon, where I had been pastoring the Shiloh Fellowship, and Calvary Chapel of Visalia held it's first services, at 1:30 on Sunday afternoons, in a community room of a local store called Gottshalks. We also began Calvary Chapel Visalia with a couple of home fellowships that met during the week. These were very exciting times and very challenging, and very rewarding. As Calvary Chapel Visalia began to grow, we were able to move our services to the local YMCA, and spent the next 16 1/2 years there. Calvary Chapel Visalia slowly, but surely began to become established in the community and we grew as a body, not just numerically, but in our love for Jesus Christ, and for one another and for the city of Visalia, and the world we live in..
