Pastor-Elect
Shea aaron stansbury
Pastor Shea A. Stansbury is, first and foremost, a servant to the Body of Christ. Long before any title came his way, his heart was already set on serving, strengthening the Church, and being available wherever God had need of him: a posture of humility, faithfulness, and consistency that has defined his ministry from the beginning.
That posture was forged through years of quiet preparation. He graduated from theological seminary in June 2021, and in December 2022 was ordained an Elder by the late Bishop Richard Jerome Pender Sr., affirming the call of God upon his life. For eight years, he served as a national leader within the reformation of Beth-El Churches of Christ, while also giving himself locally as choir director and Sunday and Bible class teacher. Every assignment taught the same lesson: true Kingdom leadership begins with service and a willingness to work without seeking recognition.
History
The Beth-El Temple Church of Christ, Inc. formerly known as the Highway Church of Christ, is located in the densely populated, inner-city community in the Northwest corridor running along Park Heights Avenue and Reisterstown Road.
