Our Senior Pastor

PASTOR Tyrone M. Thomas

The spiritual growth for Tyrone Maurice Thomas began in Wayland Baptist Church, under the leadership of Reverend Darnel Johnson, III. In 1990, he moved his membership to First Mount Olive Freewill Baptist Church, under the anointed leadership of Bishop Oscar E. Brown. There Elder Thomas preached his initial sermon on November of 1994.

On October 3, 1997, Elder Thomas married his life and ministry partner, the former Michelle Antoinette Barrett. God has blessed this loving union with two incredible daughters: Aniya Lenae and Nia Morgan. He is the grandfather to Little Miss Blake Milani. His family is his support and fulfills his purpose in life and ministry.   

As a servant of God and a dynamic preacher, Elder Thomas speaks the word of God with clarity and authority. In May of 1998, Elder Thomas humbly assumed the position of First Assistant to Bishop Oscar E. Brown and in this assignment he became a blessing to the overall ministry of the church. 

Elder Thomas graduated with honors from the Baltimore City Public School System, Morgan State University, and the Howard School of Divinity in Washington, DC.

On December 8, 2004, Elder Thomas was unanimously voted to serve as the pastor of the Charity Church. Under his leadership, Charity is realizing the vision God has set for this ministry and is grateful for their anointed leader who lives, teaches, and preaches the unadulterated Word of God. 

In just nineteen years, Charity has birthed new ministries, revitalized existing ministries and increased the size of the congregation to over 600 members. In December 2014, adhering to the vision God gave him, Pastor Thomas relocated the church body to 1710-22 Gwynn Oak Avenue; in Woodlawn, renaming it Charity Church, The City of Truth. 

Pastor Thomas challenges believers to be firm in their faith and in their pursuit of God. His life and preaching have transformed lives and for this Pastor Thomas gives all honor, praise, and glory to God, the Head of his life.
