First Lady Janet Winchester

Janet Winchester, the daughter of a pastor, and a native of Blairs Virginia, is the First Lady of the First Baptist Church of Fairmount Heights Md. She has been married for over 30 years, and from their union they have three sons, Bernard Winchester III, Jovan and Darius.

Lady Winchester, as she is affectionately called, received her undergraduate degree in Information System Management at the University of Maryland and a Master’s Certification in Project Management from George Washington University.  She is employed at the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation as an IT Project Manger, but her true passion is partnering and working with her husband in Ministry.   She is currently the president of the Sister’s In Christ Women’s Ministry, a member of the Praise Team and other Choirs in the Church.    Her zeal to teach the young women in the church and community has catapulted her into the area of starting the Young Sisters In Christ Ministry, which enables her to mentor, tutor, and provide spiritual guidance, according to Titus 1.

Lady Winchester continues to prepare herself academically, physically, and most important spiritually as she works out her soul salvation in fear and trembling.  Her favorite scripture to live by is Psalms 27, “The Lord is my Light and my Salvation, whom shall I fear, the Lord is the Strength of my life of whom shall I be afraid.”
