Meet Our Pastor
“A church of imperfect people serving a perfect God”
Reverend Dr. Christopher T. Curry accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as his personal Savior in May of 1980. Reverend Curry is married to his college sweetheart, Mrs. Rosa M. Curry. After 11 years of prayer, God blessed him and Rosa with their miracle baby, Miss Ashley Curry. He was called to the ministry in April of 1989 and has preached throughout the United States, citing the highlight of his preaching ministry during a visit to Nigeria in 1992. He feels particularly called to minister to those in despair, those who doubt their self-worth, and those who feel life has dealt them a “bad hand.” He is at ease with both young audiences and those whom he describes as “Seasoned Saints.” His contemporary yet mature presence allows the Power of God to have His way.
In September of 1999, Reverend Curry was ordained into the ministry by the Beloved St. John Evangelistic Church in Philadelphia, PA. Prior to accepting the call of God to Pastor Ezion Fair Baptist Church, he served at Berkeley College, Delaware State University, Delaware Valley College, and Lincoln University as the Dean and/or Director of Residence Life. In these positions, he implemented various programs and activities to give residential students the opportunity to grow, develop, and mature into the productive citizens that all universities and colleges desire. Dr. Curry is a member of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc., initiated in Mu Omega Chapter, currently serving in the local chapter of Gamma Mu Nu, and he is the Immediate Past Grand Chaplain for the International Fraternity.
Dr. Curry received his Bachelor’s degree from Lincoln University; a certificate of Certification in Elementary Education from West Chester University; a Master’s in Educational Leadership from Cheyney University; a Ph.D. in Educational Leadership, with an emphasis on School Violence, from LaSalle University; a second Master’s in Divinity from Eastern Baptist Theological Seminary, and a second Doctorate in Ministry from United Theological Seminary.
