astor, Brent Darrell Waldon Sr., was born in Sumter, South Carolina to the late Herald and Wilhelmenia Waldon Sr. His mother joined the SDA church during the mid 60's. It was then that she and her children became active members. His father later joined the church and became a very spiritual and dedicated deacon and later First Elder.
Following the leading of the Holy Spirit, our Pastor enrolled in Oakwood College to prepare for the Ministry. While at Oakwood, he met and married the former Jacqueline Matthews from Hammond, Louisiana. To this union came four children, Kawaisha LaRose and Kalisha Addrianna (twins), Kristy Marie, Brent Jr., and his beautiful granddaughter, KeAndria LaRose.


Kalisha graduated Summa Cum Laude from Oakwood in 2002 with the 3rd highest GPA. She is now employed by Southeastern Conference as an elementary school teacher. Kawaisha is a 2003 nursing major graduate of Oakwood College and a Licensed Cosmetologist. Kristy is a 2003 graduate of St. Petersburg College. Her major is Mortuary Science. Brent Jr. has just completed his second year of nursing at Oakwood College. KeAndria is three years old, and is enrolled in Mt. Sinai’s Child Developmental Center.

Our Pastor’s wife, Jacqueline, also graduated from Oakwood College with a Bachelor of Arts Degree/Music, and later pursued the field of nursing. Presently she works part-time as a critical care nurse, and volunteers at Mt. Sinai Jr. Academy as the choir director. She is our Pastor’s energetic partner in ministry and is actively involved in the leadership of many church and church school programs. Pastor and Sis Waldon love and support all the youth in the church, and are dedicated workers for Christian education.

Our Pastor was sent by God to pastor Mt. Sinai in January 2000. He has pastored a total of 9 churches in Southeastern Conference since 1982. The Lord has used him to bring many souls to the watery grave of baptism. He also serves on several conference committees, and is willing to have the Spirit of God lead and guide him in anyway deemed necessary. His leadership has been a blessing to the members of Mt. Sinai.

Last, but not least, our Pastor is a man of integrity, a spiritual leader, a man of God and a faithful shepherd of God’s people. He is one who truly lives up to the command, “To whom much is given, much is required.”
