About our Pastor

Pastor Thomas K. Fryman, Jr. received the Lord Jesus Christ as his Saviour in 1970 at the Central Baptist Church, Ft. Lauderdale, Fla. He was called into the ministry the same year. Upon graduation from high school he enrolled in Baptist Bible College, of Springfield, Missouri.  While there he met and married his wife, Penny. They both graduated in 1974. 

 

After working as youth director for eighteen months, Pastor Fryman felt the need for additional training. He enrolled in Bob Jones University, graduating with a B.A. in Pastoral Studies and a M.A. in Church Administration.

 

He was called to pastor the Cornerstone Baptist Church, of Massillon, Ohio, in June of 1980. He is still serving in this capacity today.  In addition to pastoring, he has taught for seventeen years at the Massillon Baptist College and serves on the advisory board for an adult day-care provider.  

 

Pastor Fryman and Penny have three children.  Joshua is the pastor of the Community Baptist Church in Riverhead, NY.  He and his wife Jennifer have two daughters Madison and Molly.  Kenny is the pastor of the Grand River Baptist Church in Painesville, OH.  He and his wife Brenda have two children, Katie and Caleb.  Jennifer is serving the Lord at Cornerstone with her husband Jon and two sons, AJ and Aiden.   Pastor Fryman and his family hope that the ministry of Cornerstone Baptist Church can have a lasting impact on the Massillon, Ohio area.
