ELVIN J. MALLORY

SENIOR PASTOR

Elvin J. Mallory is the dynamic pastor of First Bethesda Missionary Baptist Church Inc, a musician, and an entrepreneur. He has written, published, and produced many musical compositions professionally and is a licensed songwriter with SEASAC. He is the son of Dr. L. Joe Mallory and Mrs. Carolyn Mallory. He is married to Nicole, and together, they have three children. Elvin's success also includes—owning and operating his family business—Mallory's Precision Cuts Barber and Beauty of Albany, Georgia.

Pastor Mallory was elected and installed as pastor of First Bethesda Missionary Baptist Church in 2017. Before pastoring First Bethesda, his interest sparked at the age of 17. He has held several positions, including being a musician, worship leader, and practicing minister throughout his spiritual service. He devoted time to church service at Mount Hebron Baptist Church of Albany, GA. However, after serving seven years, he began his preaching career at True Fellowship Baptist Church of Albany, GA. He later pastored Pleasant Grove Missionary Baptist Church of Pelham, GA, and continued to be a prevalent leader for nearly a decade—about nine years.

 

In 2019, he started as an adjunct instructor for barbering and was then promoted to the barbering department chair in 2021 at Albany Technical College. Pastor Mallory is currently a student at the Beulah Heights University of Albany, GA. He also attended Bethune-Cookman University and was a Dougherty Comprehensive High School graduate.
