Meet the Team

Born in Puerto Rico, Pastor Pedro Morales moved to Baltimore with his family at the age of five. Although he spent a brief time living in New York City, most of his childhood was spent in Baltimore. During his senior year at Patterson High School, he met his wife, Trina, who was born and raised in Highlandtown. They graduated together in 1993 and soon after made the life-changing decision to accept Jesus Christ as their Savior.

Pedro and Trina have been blessed with four grown daughters, three of whom are married, and five precious grandchildren.

Pastor Morales has faithfully served the Lord in various ministry roles, including Assistant Pastor, Youth Pastor, and Spanish Pastor. Though deeply committed to these ministries, God placed a strong burden on his heart to establish a gospel-preaching church in the city where he and Trina were raised. After much prayer and godly counsel, the Lord confirmed His will through Scripture: “Go home to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and hath had compassion on thee.” — Mark 5:19

In 2021, Pedro and Trina returned to Baltimore, and on September 18, 2022, Baltimore Baptist Church was planted. They have a deep passion for loving and serving their community and firmly believe that the gospel that transformed their lives on November 27, 1993, still has the power to transform the lives of others today.
