Our Pastor

Pastor Dr. Keith A. Troy & Min. Brenda Troy

The ability to wrap the traditional virtues of our forefathers’ religion within the framework of modern-day relevance is a hallmark of great religious leaders. A learned scholar, Dr. Keith Troy was blessed with such a gift and has become widely regarded as a “master teacher” with a Shepherd’s heart. And always at his side, his wife, Minister Brenda Troy, demonstrating her support to her husband and commitment to the betterment of our community and individuals’ quality of life.

Together, they are the proud parents of three daughters, Myeshia, Tiffane’, Shanece, and two sons, Andre’ and Kendall, and seven grandchildren, and they have been faithful stewards of New Salem Baptist Church in Columbus, Ohio for nearly 40 years.
