 Elder Debra Brown Morton Marks Her 70th Birthday
It was a momentous occasion yesterday, June 19th, as Elder Debra Brown Morton, wife of Bishop Paul Morton, the founder of Full Gospel Baptist Church Fellowship, marked her 70th birthday concurrently with Juneteenth, a significant day celebrated by African-American pastors and churches across the United States in honor of the end of slavery in America.
Taking to social media, Elder Morton expressed her overflowing gratitude for God’s blessings, family, and church community.
“Born to be free and advocate freedom for others!” she wrote, referencing her Juneteenth birthday. Morton highlighted her faith, stating, “There’s a lot going on in my head and my heart but for right now, I just want to say thank you! yes… to the father Jesus.”
She also acknowledged the love and support of her husband, family, friends, and church family. She further playfully referred to joining the “70’s Club” and emphasized her thankfulness for God’s faithfulness.
The celebratory spirit continued as Elder Morton shared a later post, detailing her plans for a birthday dinner and a spontaneous act of kindness. She shared a lighthearted story of buying yellow roses from a young vendor to “give him a boost,” showcasing her commitment to helping others.
Elder Morton’s husband, Bishop Morton, also took to social media to celebrate his wife. In a loving message, he expressed his honor at being married to her for 47 years, calling her “More Beautiful than the Day I Met U.” “Thank you for making my life so complete,” he concluded.
