Meet Our Staff

Rev. James A. Washington Sr.

Senior Pastor

I was called to the pastorate at St. Peter M. B. Church over 40 years ago.  This was without question, one of the high points in my Christian experience.  St. Peter, (located then on the corner of South and Martin streets) was the place of my second birth.  It was here that I accepted Christ at age of 11 or 12 years old.  I sung in the choir, taught Sunday School, served in the Baptist Training Union, and on the Usher Board.  And in June 1959 received my call to the ministry.  On the fourth Sunday night in January 1961, I preached my first sermon at St. Peter.  Later while serving as the assistant pastor of Cade Chapel Baptist Church, I was called to pastor St. Peter on the fourth Sunday in 1969.  The following Friday night I was called to pastor the Cade Chapel Baptist Church.  After much prayer, the Holy Spirit led me to accept the pastorate at St. Peter.  And I am happy to say God has been good to our ministry.
