Pastor's BioPastor Troy L Young & Wife Hillary Young
Pastor Troy L. Young is a humble, compassionate, spirit-filled man of God, who seeks to live out the golden rule “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you!” As a result of being reared by God-fearing parents, and grandparents, he was introduced to Christianity at a very early age. At age nine, Pastor Young accepted Christ as His Lord and Savior; at age twelve and through his teen years, he served as Superintendent of Sunday School at his home church. In December 1987, he answered the call to the ministry and was licensed to preach the gospel, and He was called to his first pastorate in the spring of 1989. In March 1995, he was called to pastor the St. Luke Missionary Baptist Church. He considers it an honor and privilege to still serve as pastor of this congregation to date. Pastor Young also currently serves as the 2nd Vice Chairman of the Second District Institute of Cypress Baptist Association and the Dean of the Cypress District Congress of Christian Education in Sulphur Springs, Texas. Pastor Young is a graduate of the Central Baptist Bible Institute and is currently continuing his education at Slidell Bible College and Seminary of Slidell, Louisiana. He is married to Hillary Young, and through this union he has two sons Gary, and Cameron; and one daughter, Mignon. He is also the proud grandfather of three handsome and intelligent grandsons, Andre’, Austin and Peyton. |
