The speaker's pulpit. Although there are no restrictions as to the size and shape of a pulpit, this one is typical. It stands about three and one-half feet tall and has a slanted top where the speaker can place his/her Bible and sermon notes.

The empty cross is often featured at the front of the sanctuary in a Baptist Church. Some use a small cross while others have a very prominent cross. The cross is always empty to signify the Christ has risen and is alive!

Calhoun was not immune to the movement of people from the small communities around to the larger community of Moncton. By 1992 there were so few families showing interest that the Sunday School programme ceased. The small congregation continues to meet weekly for Sunday services.

While some of the graves have been identified, many of the graves located in the cemetery remained unmarked as whatever grave markers were used have long since deteriorated.
