MEET OUR PASTOR

Pastor Marcus Young &
Lady Lolita Young

In 1991 at Bethany Missionary Baptist Church under the leadership of the late Herschel V. Palmer III, Marcus Young rededicated his life to the Lord. After growing in the Word, he was appointed to serve as Superintendent of Church School, a Sunday School & Bible Teacher and a mentor. He accepted his calling into the Ministry in July 2000 and gave his first public sermon under the guidance of Rev. C.L. Mapp, Sr. During this period of his ministry, he was appointed as the Youth Minister and New Member Class Teacher. He was then ordained as a Minister of the Gospel in January 2002. Minister Marcus Young received his calling to pastor the Chestnut Grove Baptist Church and was installed as the Pastor in February 2003. His motto is "Follow me as I follow God". Pastor Young welcomed support in the pulpit in July 2005 when the First Lady of Chestnut Grove became Evangelist Lolita Young. Under Pastor Young's leadership, the church broke ground to build a new sanctuary in April 2007 and moved in May 2008. Many have come and gone; however, Pastor Young often says "God will add to His house as He sees fit." Pastor and First Lady Young were wed in 1987 and they share two children, a son, Elder Kavius Young and one daughter Minister Tyesha Foster.
