MACEDONIA BAPTIST CHURCH

Reverend Carl L. George was born in Mt. Pleasant, Texas to Reverend Louie B. George and Mrs. Aberstine George.  He was raised in Texarkana, Texas and accepted Christ as his personal Savior at Oak Street Baptist Church in Texarkana, Texas. 

In 1986, he graduated from the University of Texas at Tyler with a Bachelor of Business Administration Degree.  His educational background has led to a broad range of experiences in the business field as a manager, financial advisor and entrepreneur.

On March 17, 1996, he surrendered to the call of ministry and continues to uplift the George legacy set by two brothers, his father, his great-grandfather and several uncles who are ministers. 

Reverend George has served as associate minister at New Generation Baptist Church and at the North Star Baptist Church, both in Tyler, Texas.  He has served as pastor of Powell Chapel Baptist Church in Winona, Texas, Lifeline Baptist Church in Tyler, Texas and Pilgrim Rest Baptist Church in Palestine, Texas. 

He has a vision to bring all aspects of life into the Christian arena and a burden to preach the Word of God across racial, cultural and generational lines.

Reverend Carl George is married to Mrs. LaQuetta George.  They have two children, a son, Christian Lee and a daughter, Chelsey Lynn.
