Elder Debra B. Morton is Co-Pastor of the Greater St. Stephen Full Gospel Baptist Church in New Orleans, Louisiana. She works diligently in the service of the Lord with her husband, Bishop Paul S. Morton, Sr.
In 1993, Elder Morton was ordained an elder making her one of the first female elders to preach in the Baptist pulpit. She received her Bachelor of Arts Degree from the University of New Orleans and has received countless accolades for her civic and community contributions, which led to her selection as YMCA role model of the year.
Her current program, launched in 2007, is The Power Woman Initiative where her goal is to positively impact the lives of women by nurturing and empowering them to succeed as leaders in their homes, jobs, church, and community.
Elder Morton is General Overseer of the Full Gospel Baptist Church Fellowship International women's ministry known as the Daughters of the Promise. Her vision for the Daughters of the Promise is to build and operate a home for troubled teenage girls.
She is the author of three books, and is presently penning a forthcoming devotional focusing on empowering women and helping them achieve balance in their daily lives ("Morning Coffee", "The New Millennium Question: Where is the Lord God of Elijah?", "Seize Opportunity- It's Your Season"). In addition to prophetically proclaiming the word of God, Elder Morton is the Executive Producer of the hit album entitled "Where There Is A Will There Is A Way", featuring The Women of Excellence Mass Choir.
Elder Morton is the mother of three children: Jasmine, Paul Jr., and Christiann and one grandson, Elvin, Jr. Her sincerity and self-sacrificing compassion for others exhibit her ultimate belief that one must "seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you" (Matthew 6:33).
