Meet The Pastor
Rev. Ronald E. Taylor, Sr. was born and raised in the Washington, D.C., area. He is the youngest of three children of the late Robert B. Taylor, Sr., and Doris M. Taylor. Reverend Taylor has been married to Deborah D. Taylor – whom he affectionately calls the Bone of His Bone and the Flesh of His Flesh – for 38 years. To this union were blessed 3 children; Asia, Ronald Jr., and Joseph.
Reverend Taylor was educated in the D.C. public school system; studied at USDA Business School, UDC, and Maple Springs Baptist Bible College and Seminary; and earned his degree in Biblical Studies from Lancaster Bible College.
Reverend Taylor accepted the call to the ministry in June 2000 and was licensed to preach the glorious gospel of Jesus Christ by the late Rev. Dr. L. B. Jones, Sr., Pastor of Springfield Missionary Baptist Church in Washington, D.C.
In 2008, Reverend Taylor was called to serve as Assistant Pastor under the leadership of Reverend Gary A. Davis, pastor of Grace United Baptist Church. There, he served as Director of Christian Education, Bible Study, and Sunday School Teacher, as well as performing a number of other administrative, ministerial, and evangelistic duties.
Reverend Taylor is a visionary with a passion for engaging the membership, preaching and teaching the gospel, and facilitating the church’s growth and development. He has coined the phrase FHBC is On the Move!
