PASTOR SUSIE ELLIOTT PRESIDENT BROOKLYN COUNCIL OF CHURCHES
Rev. Susie Elliott, Pastor of Mt. Paran Baptist Church located in the Bushwick
section of Brooklyn is the President of the Brooklyn Council of
Churches. The BCC is an ecumenical agency established to encourage
cooperative work among the church and community organizations of the
borough. The BCC seeks to enhance church services in areas affecting
the religious, moral and social welfare of the people.
Rev. Elliott declares, “I am delighted to be working with the Brooklyn
Council of Churches at this most exciting and challenging time in our
nation’s history. I am very much looking forward to working with
colleagues within our body and beyond. “
A priority in her administration will be the health of churches and
the communities they serve. Working with the American Heart
Association, Mt. Paran under the leadership of Pastor Elliott has
served as an American Heart Association site and is part of the effort
to educate African Americans of the risks of heart attack and stroke.
Pastor Elliott believes that the BCC can provide leadership that will foster
fellowship and bring about a new spirit of advocacy in the areas of health
and social justice.
