Pastor
Mary F. Baltimore is a teacher, preacher, mother and friend called
and anointed by God for such a time as this. Pastor Mary labored
along with her husband, Douglas E. Baltimore, Pastor and Founder of
Temple
of
Jesus Church
for 23 years as 1st Lady. On October 4, 1998 she was licensed to
minister the gospel; on June 11, 2000 she was publicly ordained into
the ministry and became Co–Pastor of the
Temple
of
Jesus Church
.
The
morning of her husbands passing, he (Douglas E. Baltimore) laid his
hand upon her forehead and prayed for her. While doing this, he
passed away onto glory. Since the passing of her husband in February
2002, Pastor Mary F. Baltimore has accepted the call of Pastor on
her life and was publicly installed as Pastor of
Temple
of
Jesus Church
by Dr. Leroy Thompson, Sr. in March 2002.
Pastor
Mary's mission is to help broken people become whole again through
the teaching of God's Word and by being an example – setter. She
believes that when we teach what it means to walk with God and to
humble ourselves before Him, literally surrendering all to Christ,
then healing and growth can begin. Men and women must study God's
Word so they are equipped to teach others about the awesomeness of
God's eternal love.
Pastor Mary has established the Douglas E. Baltimore
Scholarship Fund. Pastor Douglas Baltimore believed that no one
should be denied an education for lack of finances. With these
scholarship funds, Pastor Mary supports the college education
pursuits of several scholars.
Pastor
Mary married the late Douglas
Baltimore
on May 26, 1969.
From their union, they were blessed with five children and
five grandchildren.
