Pastor/Shepherd
Byron DeShawn Wyatt was born in Houston, Texas on August
6, 1970. At the age of 11, he accepted Jesus Christ
and was baptized at Outreach Missionary Baptist Church
under the pastorate of Rev. John L. Hart. He served
there and was a faithful member in several ministries,
including the choir and the Junior Deacon Board.
As
he grew older and more mature in the word and works
of the Lord, he felt the call of God on his life. Ultimately,
on November 27, 1994, he answered this call and began
to preach and teach the love of Jesus; His death, burial,
and resurrection.
Pastor
Wyatt later united with St. Matthew Missionary Baptist
Church under the leadership of Rev. Leroy Lacy Jr. While
serving at St. Matthews, he was appointed as the Youth
Pastor. In this capacity, he assisted the senior pastor
and helped prompt the youths' spiritual growth, compelled
boys and girls to accept Jesus Christ and established
several youth programs.
Pastor
Wyatt answered the call of Lead Servant at Galilee Missionary
Baptist Church November 22, 2002 and was installed as
Pastor in January 2003. His philosophy of ministry is
inspired by the life of the Apostle Paul. Paul's zeal
was to spread the gospel of Christ to everyone he encountered.
Giving God the praise and taking no credit for himself,
he never allowed his personal endeavors to deter him
from doing God's will. He remained steadfast regardless
of odds against him. Pastor Wyatt wants to use his knowledge,
experiences, and strong inter-personal skills to strengthen
the Kingdom of God by equipping believers with solid
biblical principles to apply to everyday life.
Pastor
Wyatt believes in the principle that Christianity begins
at home. One of the major focal points of his ministry
is family. If the family is strong, then the church
has the opportunity to be strong and productive.
Pastor
Wyatt is married to the lovely Bernadette L. Wyatt,
who he calls his "Blessing" and they have
two children, Brianna Mechelle and Breylon J. Wyatt.
