Walter ‘Walt’ J. Chantry (1938-2022) was born in Norristown, Pennsylvania and was a Reformed Baptist elder/pastor. He was raised in the Presbyterian Church and was converted to Christ as a teenager. He graduated from Dickinson College in 1960 with a B.A. in History, and went on to receive a B.D. from Westminster Theological Seminary in 1963. That same year he was called to be pastor of Grace Baptist Church in Carlisle, Pennsylvania where he served the Lord for the next 39 years. Soon after his retirement in 2002, he was asked to be the editor of The Banner of Truth magazine and continued in this ministry for seven years. Walt Chantry passed into the presence of his Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ on September 5, 2022.

Walter Chantry is the father of Thomas Chantry, who also was a Reformed Baptist elder/pastor (up until his removal).
