Pastor Anre' D. Faush

“Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but be thou partaker of the afflictions of the gospel according to the power of God; Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began, But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Savior Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel:" (2 Timothy 1:8-10)

Rev. Anre’ D. Faush was born and raised in Birmingham, AL. He is the only son of Ms. Brenda C. Faush and the great-grandson of the late Hazel Freeman (Steward) of St. John A.M.E. Church, Birmingham, AL.

 

He was educated in the Birmingham Public City School System, where he graduated from A.H. Parker High School. Recognizing the importance of higher education, he pursued his studies at the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB), obtaining a Bachelor of Arts Degree in History with a Minor in Mass Communications.

 

As a son of St. John, Anre’ confessed Christ at an early age and actively participated in many of the church’s ministries. In 1991, under the leadership of Rev. James L. Davis, he accepted his call into the ministry and began a journey of service for the Kingdom of God. Yet, there was an even greater call upon his life, leading him to pursue a seminary degree at Birmingham Theological Seminary (Briarwood). In 2023, he earned his Master’s Degree from New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary, New Orleans, LA.
