Pastor Dorsey has served as under shepherd and the Angel of God’s
House at Ebenezer Baptist Church in Mt. Airy, Georgia for the past
26 years. He counts it his mission to be a servant and messenger of
the Most High God. During his tenure at Ebenezer, God has
wrought a great work through this servant. The church has
experienced a tremendous growth both spiritually and physically
while at the same time embracing diversity-A Place for Everyone
~For Everyone a Place.
By the Grace of God, the church has expanded spiritually through
the ministries and family cell approaches. People are accepting our
Lord and Savior Jesus Christ; they are willing to learn, and to work
to fulfill their calling. This is an outgrowth of the preaching-
teaching ministry. Christian Education is one of the mainstays.
There are over 25 ministries established to meet the needs of the ever growing congregation and
the community through outreach and evangelism. He continues to enact tremendous outreach
initiatives that focus not only on the immediate community but also surrounding cities and the
state through the Performing Arts Academy, the Back to School Community Impact Summit, the
Prayer and Evangelism Ministries “taking it to the streets” and a number of other venues. He is a
contributing pastor on WCON Radio in Cornelia, Georgia on the “Words to Live By” Series
(WTLB). Pastor Dorsey embraces the holistic approach to ministry-Spirit, Mind, and Body.
God gave Pastor Dorsey the vision to build a sanctuary, house of prayer, for His people. In
obedience to the Word of God, this vision was realized eight years ago. Thank God for the vision
coming to fruition. “For my house will be called a house of prayer for all nations." Isaiah 56:7
