Rev. Patricia Hailes Fears is a daughter of Fellowship Baptist Church. She was called to be the second pastor of Fellowship in October of 2016. She is a native of New Bedford, Mass but has called Washington, DC home for a number of years. Reverend Fears served enthusiastically, and creatively, prior to becoming Pastor, at the Westover Baptist Church in Arlington, Virginia.

Reverend Fears has a passion to serve the Lord and a creative spirit. Her ministerial resume includes youth, health, and educational leadership. Humbly submitting to the irresistible call, Reverend Fears was ordained, she believes, to preach the simple message of God’s love, compassion and requirements to a world constricted by complexity.

“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” Philippians 4:13
