Pastor Belinda Pritchett was removed from her mother's home in 1965 and placed in foster care systems, until she aged out. She became pregnant at the age of sixteen and found out later that her firstborn was diagnosed with Down’s Syndrome. Pastor Belinda was mentally, physically, emotionally and sexually abused by people who were supposed to keep her safe. She was placed in a girl’s home, while she ran the street with people she felt care for her. Belinda was a frequent runaway and involved with men just for acceptance. She would do anything to get attention from men, professionals, neighbors and family members, just to be heard. In the past, she continued to struggle with her past of emotional barriers in which she is now in therapy for. Pastor Belinda A. Pritchett is a 63-year-old, divorced three times, mother of six birth children and one stepson. She holds a Master’s degree in Clinical Social Work, Qualify Mental Health and Qualify Intellectual Disabled Professionals. She continues to minister to the body of Christ, devoting her life to help and restore the broken-hearted.

 

She tells her story while accepting engagements, seminars and going around the country preaching the word of God. Pastor Belinda’s goal is to help others reach their highest potential and letting them know that God is not finished with them yet! Beauty lies within all of us. She can still hear the mandate that her mother told her years ago. She holds the words dearly in her heart. “You are the oldest. I place you in charge.” Now, God tells her, “YOU ARE THE CHOSEN ONE. I PLACE YOU IN CHARGE TO TELL YOUR STORY AND PULL THE WEAK OUT OF BONDAGE AND SLAVERY OF THE MIND!!”
